• The Christian life is not just our own private affair. If we have been born again into God's family, not only has he become our Father but every other Christian believer in the world, whatever his nation or denomination, has become our brother or sister in Christ.

Every Christian's place is in a local church. sharing in its worship, its fellowship, and its witness.
