What is one of the church's primary functions? It's function is to tell the world about Jesus, save the lost and to preserve the saints through instruction, example and intercessory prayer.
The founder of the Church is Jesus Christ. We share a common faith in Him and follow his example of compassion for the masses and empathy for the concerns of each individual.
Today, will share similar struggles, fears and frustrations despite the passing of years. As God fearing men and women we must hold on to the faith and vigorously promote the kingdom of God with all of its energy.
We must hold on, just as our fore parents held on. We must intercede and pray just as our forefathers prayed. If we feel weak along the way we must remember that "help is on the way.”
Today we celebrate Christ, the founder of the church. We also celebrate a legacy of Christian response to personal needs.
We celebrate because this is the church community from whose womb many great minds will come forth to give witness to the power of God.
As Christians, we are glad that Christ came to give us an opportunity for salvation. We are also glad that He has become our mediator before the throne of grace. We resolve to keep lifting up His name among the saints as we lift up the concerns of his people through constant prayer and supplication.
