Sermon Notes 06/04/25
. Belonging= A huge need on the human hierarchy of needs, how much more for Christians- we need to be part of a local church, seeing other Christians, etc in our walk with Christ- I admit most of my friends aren't Christians so I always appreciate the special relationship with Christian friends- it's special as we are brothers and sisters in Christ!
. Not just "me and God" we are meant to walk together! Don't get me wrong a personal relationship with God is essential but God wants us walking with and encouraging other Christians!
. Church is not an optional extra, the devil wants you isolated! I have seen the effects of isolation of Christians who don't attend church on here and in the non virtual world- it isn't pretty!
. Why? We are a body- every part matters, we are all necessary! Play your part in the body of Christ!
. Our experiences- for example My Wednesday bible study pastor who has become a spiritual role model, fellowship memories like that bible study couple from Sheffield who were so warm and welcoming , etc. I'd have experienced none of this if I walked the Christian walk in isolation!
Great message from the pastor on the importance of other Christians in our Christian walk and of joining a church!
