26 February 2023 - ENCS

The "what is church” series Pastor Josh did complete
Called by God, church is community where we meet
“Is it really worth it?” was the key question for today
Something often asked in tough times, Josh did say

Ephesians one says if we believe, we will get a seal
A supernatural Holy Spirit from God is what we feel
To love God, we must love others - ergo, community
As we experience this, more spiritual growth we see

We get “every spiritual blessing”, as per verse three
We are chosen, adopted as sons, accepted eternally
Having redemption through His blood and forgiveness
Obtaining an inheritance so our fear is infinitely less

Christ are us alive despite our sins, per Ephesians two
Giving us constant spiritual ‘oxygen’ helps us to renew
We have been saved entirely due to Christ's grace
And with Jesus, we will surely sit in a heavenly place

Caring for someone is oft more important than advice
Per Jesus’ wisdom and encouragement to be precise
Being in a community means having something to offer
Ensuring that our talents are used, not kept in a coffer

The church can help equip its people for such service
Building up the body of Christ without being nervous
Remember that Christ is the cornerstone of the church
We all fit together, so  let’s not leave others in a lurch
