Matthew 16:18 (NIRV)

18 Here is what I tell you. You are Peter. On this rock I will build my church. The gates of hell will not be strong enough to destroy it.

  • The Universal Church = Body of Christ

Sometimes “church” is used to depict what some may call the universal church, which speaks of the unity of all believers everywhere.

  • The Local Church = Community Fellowship

The local church is the primary center of fellowship and worship, and the chief means God uses for evangelism, disciple-making, and ministry.

  • Send, Proclaim, Disciple

Matthew 28:19-20 (NIV)

19 Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely, I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”

1 Corinthians 1:2 (NIV)

2 To the church of God in Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus and called to be his holy people, together with all those everywhere who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ—their Lord and ours
