What Do You Think?
Wednesday, January 21st, 2009As we are wrestling with who we are as a body, we will be trying to put some of our thoughts in writing. Periodically I will post some thoughts here, giving you the opportunity to interact with them. Here is the first opportunity.
WHO WE ARE
We are a group of people who recognize that we are all needy. Our common need stems from the belief that we are sinful and disobedient to God. This means we don’t deserve anything good from God. In fact, we deserve only punishment. However, we believe that God has been so good and loving that He was willing to receive our punishment for us in Jesus’ death. Because Jesus is God he overpowered death. Through these beliefs, God changes us for the better, but does not take away our neediness. We remain a people who are happily needy.
So, what do you think?
