One Church, One Body

The Church is the body of Christ on earth. It is a spiritual institution, not a physical one. The Church exists to carry out the Great Commission given to us by Jesus Himself: “Go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you” (Matthew 28:19-20).

The Church is not just a building or an organization; it is made up of all those who have accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior. We are the Body of Christ, called to love God and love others. There are many churches in Srinagar to attend to come together with other believers to worship God, learn about Him, and equip ourselves to do the work of the Kingdom.

The Church is not without flaws since it is made up of humans who are not perfect, but we can still come together and worship God as His people. We find forgiveness and hope because we belong to Christ and He died for us (Romans 5:8). When we gather with other believers in Jesus, our hearts are strengthened, our faith changes from what is largely intellectual to what is experiential, and we are transformed into the image of Christ.

Jesus said, “Where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them” (Matthew 18:20). We cannot do life on our own; we need each other! We all have shortcomings and sins too great for us to fix on our own, but we find grace for this in the body of Christ. Find a church near Srinagar, India, today!

The Church is not perfect yet, but it will be one day when Jesus comes back and makes all things new. What matters now is that we join together now as imperfect people with different gifts to do God’s work (Romans 12:4-5). There is something in the Church for everyone—we don’t all have to be pastors or missionaries; we can be youth group members, greeters, worship leaders, prayer warriors, etc. We each bring unique skills and abilities to add to the tapestry of what God is doing in this world through His body, the Church.

Jesus said to His disciples, “For where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them” (Matthew 18:20), so our best chance of finding Christ is when we are connected to other believers. We need each other! None of us can do life on our own; we need to be connected and committed to other followers of Jesus.

Let us Celebrate Christ’s Church

The Bible says, “the church is God’s household, which we are called to proclaim and protect” (1 Timothy 3:15). The Church has been celebrating since the day of Pentecost when Jesus sent the Holy Spirit to give His followers power and aid in their efforts to share the gospel message of salvation with all people everywhere!

We are called to protect, love, serve, encourage, and build up one another. We are members of one Church because we have been saved by grace through faith—no matter who we are or where we come from. We are all sinners who have been made into new creations by Jesus Himself. Let us cherish and love each other as brothers and sisters in Christ!

We pray for those who do not know Him, that they may turn to Jesus and experience a spiritual rebirth through the power of God’s Holy Spirit. We commit ourselves to Christ and His Church, giving Him our time, talents, and resources to further the work of fulfilling the Great Commission.

Studying God’s Word

Many people have misconceptions about how to study the Bible.

Some think that studying it means reading it or listening to someone read it aloud. Others believe that studying the Bible means asking questions, making observations, and drawing conclusions on one’s own. But in reality, these are all just parts of what is called “Bible Study.”

The true meaning of “study” is not solely confined to reading or listening but encompasses a much wider range of activities including memorizing scripture passages, taking notes on different verses/passages/chapters, analyzing biblical content for its relevance in our lives today, answering questions posed by others based off their understanding of scripture passages—all with the goal being to connect God’s Word with your life.

The Bible is God’s Word, and it has the power to transform people’s lives. We must all learn how to study His word in order to get the most out of what God wants us to know!

What Does it Mean To Worship?

What is worship? It’s a question many of us have asked at one point in our lives.

In the Old Testament, when Moses came down from Mount Sinai with the Ten Commandments written on tablets, he saw that the people had been worshipping a golden calf. In response to this sin, Moses smashed these tablets and told them they were not to worship any other gods but Jehovah alone (Exodus 34:1-4).

This was a defining moment for what we know as “worship” today–a moment where God revealed His true form by breaking apart something which looks like Him and smashing it against the ground. And yet He still loved His people enough to forgive their sins after all they had done. This is how God showed His people how they should worship Him–standing in awe and reverence; we are not to bow down at the feet of anyone, but instead, we worship God in spirit and truth (John 4:24). There are many Churches in Srinagar where you can freely join to worship Jesus with other believers!

Why We Worship

The reason why we worship is that we love Him and want to honor Him for all that He has done. We can choose to not worship because we have been set free from the burden of having to keep a list of rules and regulations as the Israelites once had. God is so loving that He sent His Son Jesus, who was born as a human being, lived among us for 33 years on Earth, then died to pay the debt of our sins on a cross at Calvary, and was raised from the dead three days later. This is why we worship God because He has shown us His great love for us through Jesus Christ!
