These are some of the highlighted lessons i learnt from the mass indoctrination day 14 that took place in zoom on the 23rd of September 2021.
We must not use God's name in vain. The house created by God is not the same as the house built by men. The Church of God bears God's name. The Church of God will not perish when the heavens and the earth pass away because we are the Church of God. We are also one body, with Jesus as the head.
Ephesians 4:4
There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to one hope when you were called;
The majority of people do not wish to be members of a church. They believe it isn't required, but Christ mandated it for us as His children. According to the Bible, we should not neglect the assembling of God's people.
Christ is the head of the Church, and if we claim to love Him, we should want to be associated with His priorities. Jesus sacrificed Himself for the sake of the Church. He shed His blood for the sake of the Church. Jesus adored the Church, and it is critical for us to be members of a Bible-believing congregation where we can learn, grow, and use our God-given talents.
Brother Eli also spoke about Baptism which is one of the major criteria for a christian.
Baptism should be done in the name of the Father in the house of God, which is the Church of God. Disciplines, laws, and commandments are all followed in the temple of God. Any baptism performed outside of God's house or in God's name is invalid and must be repeated in God's house. The first doctrine is baptism. Baptism is significant to Christians. Baptism is the process of being cleansed of one's sins. It is a complete confession of our sins. It's a big leap of faith.
Colossians 1:18 (NIV)
And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy.
Thank you and God bless you.
