The Church is The Believers

Jesus did not establish the Church,to be a physical building.

He created the Church which is actually a mistranslation from the word Ecclesia.

Ecclesia means the Assembly of Believers and the real Ecclesia is every believer dead and alive.

Since God does not dwell nor live in houses built with human hands,he don’t dwell in worship places.

God dwells in the heaven which is His throne as the earth is His footstool.


Here are Bible verses that back up what I am telling you now:


God does not live in temples made by human hands:

Acts 17:24

The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples made by human hands.

God the Father does not dwell in houses made by hands and Heaven is His throne and the earth is His footstool:

Acts 7:48-50

Yet the Most High does not dwell in houses made by hands, as the prophet says,

“‘Heaven is my throne,
and the earth is my footstool.
What kind of house will you build for me, says the Lord,
or what is the place of my rest?
Did not my hand make all these things?’

God cannot even be contained by the highest heaven much less this temple this person built:

1 Kings 8:27

But will God indeed dwell upon the earth? Even heaven, the highest heaven, cannot contain You, much less this temple I have built.

Jesus’s intent was that now through the Church the manifold wisdom of God should be made known to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly realms:

Ephesians 3:10

His intent was that now, through the church, the manifold wisdom of God should be made known to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly realms,

Jesus is the Head of the Body which is the Church:

Colossians 1:18

And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy.

We are the Body of Christ and members in particular:

1 Corinthians 12:27

Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.

There are many parts,but one Body:

1 Corinthians 12:20

As it is, there are many parts, but one body.

So we being many are one Body in Christ:

Romans 12:5

So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another.

As you can tell that the Church is the believers of Christ which are in Christ and God the Father does not dwell nor live in temples built by human hands.

The Church Explained

The Church is not a building that people go to,yet the Church is every believer in Jesus Christ.

When we realize this,

we only need to get together

and we do not need to visit

a congregation to be with

the Church.

Here are some Bible verses describing the Church:

Jesus said on this rock I will build my church and the gates of Hades will not overcome it and that rock is Christ:

Matthew 16:18

And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it.

1 Corinthians 10:4

And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.

Jesus is the head of the body

which is the Church:

Colossians 1:18

He is the head of the body, the church, as well as the beginning, the firstborn from among the dead, so that he himself may become first in all things. 

We are the body of Christ,

and each of us are members of it:

1 Corinthians 12:27

Now you are the body of Christ, and each of you is a member of it.

The Church then in the Apostles day became stronger and the Holy Spirit encouraged and helped it to grow:

Acts 9:31

The church in Judea, Galilee, and Samaria now had a time of peace and kept on worshiping the Lord. The church became stronger, as the Holy Spirit encouraged it and helped it grow. 

I hope that this clears up any confusion that is floating around about what The Church is.
