Scripture:                   2 Corinthians 5: 16-21

Sermon Title:             “Are We in Church or in Christ?”

Sermon Theme:  There are all kinds of people who are “in Church” that are self-centered, impressed with worldly things, and delight in the sins of others. When you are in Christ you see the world and the people in it differently. The power of life is found in being in Christ, not “in the church,” and we have to understand the difference.

When a person is in Christ, they are a new person.  When we are in Christ working together we can become a faithful, growing church, that demonstrates true community, deep Christian spirituality and a passion for justice, but only if we remove our preconceptions of what the church and we should be and listen to what God calls us to be.  The church can be a powerful instrument of faith but only if it is God’s church not our vision of what the church should be.
