TAP "NOTES" TO FILL IN THE BLANKS & TAKE YOUR OWN NOTES.

God established three institutions for the benefit of humanity: the home, the government, and the church. We have examined how to “Live by the Book” regarding the first two. Today we will begin to discover how to “Do Church by the Book.” A good place to start is always at the beginning. The beginning of the church is recorded for us in Acts chapter two.

One of the most beautiful pictures of the church is the Bride of Christ (Ephesians 5:25-27). From the very beginning of the church, we discover four signature qualities of the Bride. They form the acronym WIFE.

Worship: a responding community.
Instruction: a learning center.
Fellowship: a healing communion.
Employment: a deploying agency.

Which quality do you need to grow in to produce increased beauty in the Bride of Christ?
