Four Churches

Our churches face all kinds of circumstances. Let's look at four churches, each with a unique challenge. Let's look at a church dilemma of the letter versus the spirit of the law. That church was in Galatia. Let's look at a church learning that our foundation is the apostles and prophets, with Jesus the cornerstone. That foundation defines what are the essentials of our faith. Anything else is a non-essential doctrine. That church was in Ephesus. Let's look at a church learning to be steadfast and joyful in Christ Jesus. That church was in Philippi. Let's look at a reminder of what is the perfect bond of unity, lives touched by Christ's liberating love. That message was to the saints in Colossae. Let's begin.
