We The Church: A Called Out People

View all sermons by Andrew Baker

Ephesians 1:15-23; 5:25-27 — The concept of ‘The Church’ brings buildings, service structures, denominations, and even moral failings to mind. We each have an idea of what church is and should be. But ultimately, church isn’t our idea - it’s God’s. Paul describes it as nothing less than the very fullness of Christ’s body; a holy and radiant bride that He sacrificed himself to cleanse. We, The Church, are to be His ‘called out people’, whose story begins and ends and forever revolves around the person of Jesus.

Hebrews 12:1-2 — Whether gifted as an evangelist or not, God has called each of us to make Him known in this race of faith. But running is impossible if we’re burdened by the things of this world. Fixing our eyes on Jesus, and relying on His Spirit at every step, we are to throw off every weight that entangles. And, looking back across that finish line, we too will see the many we brought with us.

But even when faced with trials of the soul, his highest perspective remained anchored to Christ’s ultimate triumph. With this same perspective, we too can move from trial to triumph; giving praise and spreading the ‘aroma’ of Christ on our way.

Partakers & Participants

Titus 2:11-3:8; 2 Peter 1:3-8 — Throughout the New Testament, Christ’s followers are called to lives of Godliness. But spiritual transformation into Christ’s likeness is not automatic. As the Apostles Paul and Peter remind us, we are not sanctified by the power of Christ’s grace and Spirit alone - we, His disciples, must devote ourselves to active participation in the process too, that our lives may truly bear witness to Him.

Marked By Love

1 Corinthians 12:31b-14:1a; John 13:34-35 — In his first letter to the Corinthians, Paul exhorts his readers on the centrality and priority of love.
