It was my pleasure being a part of the zoom meeting today to watch the Mass Indoctrination of the MCGI. There great spiritual benefits to derive from the teachings of the doctrines. One of such benefits is that we are exposed to the commandments of God. This will help us to be obedient to these commandments.
Also, the teachings save us from the traps of false teachers. We get to understand what God expects of us as believers.
THE CHURCH BELONGS TO GOD
1 Corinthians 10:32 (KJV) Give none offence, neither to the Jews, nor to the Gentiles, nor to the church of God:
Bro Eli Soriano led emphasis on this fact like he said yesterday. We were made to understand that God is the owner of the church. Therefore, the true church should be named after God. Bro Eli cited examples that it would be wrong to name someone else's property after another person. Since the church is God's institution which He established for the salvation of man, the true name of the church should be Church of God.
THE GENTILES ARE MEMBERS OF THE CHURCH
Ephesians 3:6 (KJV) That the Gentiles should be fellowheirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel:
We do not have the right to establish our own church. We must become members of the church of God. The gentiles are fellow heirs of the same body. That body is the church of God. Jesus Christ established the church. The church is one of the doctrines of Jesus Christ.
JOINING THE CHURCH
According to Bro Eli, joining the church is very vital if we want to please God. Anyone who rejects the church will not receive the salvation of Jesus. Bro Eli Soriano advised us to not listen to those who claim that the church era is already passed. The church of the doctrine of Jesus Christ. If we are those who desire to please God, we must join the church of God.
