SUBJECT: Church
QUESTION: Where is God’s true church today?
ANSWER:
Very good question. Since the apostasy of the Worldwide
church more than 400 individual organizations have been
formed. We do not believe that anyone can attest to all
400-450 organizations whether God is using them. Each
individual is going to have to decide for themselves where
God is working.
One thing to check for is to ask whether the organization is
fulfilling or carrying out BOTH the first commission to
"spread the gospel to the world" and the second commission
to "feed the flock".
Matthew 24:14
And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the
world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end
come.
1 Peter 5:2
Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the
oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for
filthy lucre, but of a ready mind;
Acts 20:28
Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock,
over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to
feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own
blood.
Now there are a couple of places on the Internet to begin
making your own assessment.
