What is the Church?
The church is about sound doctrine (per the Scriptures and the Creeds), indeed. But it is also about the gathering: the “breaking of the bread.” There is a special presence of God in the “sacrament” – the “communion” or “supper.”
We don’t accomplish such by mail or TV or “on-line.” We gather to break the bread, to confess our sins, and have forgiveness proclaimed. We do so under the authority of pastors/elders. There is order. There is government and submission to authority and true fellowship.
