Theme: Christ and His Church

Summary

The message underscores the intimate and inseparable union between Christ and the Church, emphasizing that they share the same name, authority, and identity. Believers are encouraged to recognize their oneness with Christ and their position of dominion, glory, and authority.


 

  • Christ and His Church: The message centers around the profound union between Christ and the Church, using Ephesians 1:22-23 as the opening scripture. It emphasizes that Christ is the head of the Church, and the Church is His body, and they are inseparably one.
  • The Union Between Christ and the Church: The message references the dialogue between the Lord and Saul (later known as Paul) in Acts 9:3-5 as an illustration of the intimate union between Christ and the Church. In this passage, the Lord asked Saul why he was persecuting Him when Saul was actually persecuting Christians. This illustrates that the Lord identifies closely with the Church, considering an offense against the Church as an offense against Him.
  • The Head and the Body Have the Same Authority and Identity: The message highlights that Christ is the head of the Church, and the Church is His body, and they share the same name, authority, and identity. Together, they are called Christ.
  • Oneness with Christ: The message reminds believers that they have been baptized into the body of Christ and have been made one with Him. When Christ was raised from the dead and seated on the throne, believers were raised up and seated together with Him in a place of dominion, glory, and authority.
  • Conclusion: The message concludes with a confession of gratitude for the inextricable oneness with Christ and the sublime union and identity with Him. Believers are reminded that they are seated with Christ in a position of dominion, glory, and authority.
