The Church is Us

The Church is Us

Let's go to Church? The Church is described in the Bible as the body of Christ. His followers united as one under His head and lordship. It seems simple enough to understand the base concept of what the Church is. Somewhere along the way the concept became warped into a building or temple, where in just that spot does God work and move and inspire his people to stay inside as much as possibly. No more dusty sandals for us. Actually it says that our physical body made of flesh is the temple of God. This is where He has chosen for His Spirit to live. He has chosen to live in those men and women who believe in His only begotten son. This kind of destroys the idea of going to church. At one point in the Bible it even says that we shouldn't bother building him a house at all, because the Earth is his footstool. We build them for our rituals, not because God is homeless.
