Family Life
The family is
the only basis for God's church. The Lord does
not have an organization, He has a family. That
family is an organism, whose simplest unit is the
marriage of a husband and wife who parent the
children.
Every family
should see themselves as the local congregation of
Jesus Christ. Their affiliation with a local
business organization church or a house church of
other families is their community fellowship, not
their local congregation.
The head of the
house, the pastor, is Jesus, and the husband is
the shepherd of the family flock. The priesthood of
every believer is in context to the lost. But every
member contributes to the spiritual, soulful and
physical health of the family.
In the family
the corporate expression of Christ is first
formed, and uniquely revealed. A family that is
unified in their expression of Christ is able to
strengthen the community fellowship. A family that
has learned to hear Christ speak corporately will
hear Christ speak in the community gathering. This
section of the website is intended to help families
learn to hear Christ together.
