The Church - As The House of God

Bro. Leonard Robinson

Keep your foot when you go to the House of God. Do not be rash with your mouth. Do not utter oaths you are not going to keep. God’s eyes are open and His ears attentive to what is going on in His house. Based on Ecclesiastes 5:1

Note: The House of God in this article from this point doesn’t refer to any building. So, please, when you read the term House od God it doesn’t mean temple or any other facility than referring to the people of God.

The Bible is clear about God’s desire for us to reflect His holiness (1 Peter 1:15), and it is clear about the need for church discipline to deal with sin in the church. 

Since one of the jobs of the church is to demonstrate the goodness and holiness of God, a church with a member who persists in sin must take steps to address the state of that person’s soul as well as protect the church body from being corrupted by unchallenged sin in its membership.

The Church is not supposed to be the Clubhouse for sinners to hang out and feel accepted. The Church is not the Kiwanis club or the Masons or supposed to be the enclave of political groups with their ideologies and philosophies.

The Church is the House of God. It’s the Father’s house and you don’t just sit up in your Father’s house doing whatever you want to do. The reason why the Father chastens His children is to bring the correction necessary to mold and make them in His image and likeness that they would live life in such a way that the Father is glorified in His children and the children’s glory is in their Father.

The Church is the family of God. The Church are the called out ones, called out of the world, brought into the family of God, out of darkness into the Kingdom of the Son of God’s love, made to be the saints of God in light.

We are the Church of The Firstborn, the congregation of the righteous and the assembly of the upright. The Church is not the denominations that men have built like the Tower of Babel where they sought to make a name for themselves and God came down from heaven, scattered them and confounded their language.

The Church, the House of God is holy, because the saints are sanctified and walking as children of the light because God as Father is light and in Him is no darkness at all. The Church is the place where the saints are being perfected by the instructions and ministry gifts of the apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers.

And the Church is United in the truth as it does the work of the ministry, built up into Christ who is the Head. All principalities, power, might and dominion is subject to the Church as the Body of Christ because all things are under Christ feet. We the Church are complete, neatly fit together, compacted, where every joint of the Body supplies the other joints of the Body.

The Church as the people, have all things in common, where nobody lacks anything, because nobody owns anything. Everything belongs to God and through the Church, His offspring, He makes His supply available to one another as the saints have need.

Be the Church, the House of God, not based on man”s ideas, but based on the whole counsel of God as to who the Father has birthed you to be as His children.
