The focus of this book is how and why Christ is building His church. There are men building churches, and there is the church Christ is building. The church Christ is building is not natural; it’s spiritual. It’s the lampstand church. Jesus walked among the lampstands in each of the seven churches in Revelation. The One who holds the seven stars in His right hand, the One who walks among the seven golden lampstands. Revelation 2:1. (NASB) Christ has been restoring truth lost after the early church ended with the persecution of Christians under Emperor Domitian (81-96 AD). God will fulfill His eternal purpose by restoring the priesthood of all believers and the lampstand church. You also, as living stones, are being built up as a spiritual house for a holy priesthood to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ, 1 Peter 2:5. (NASB) The priesthood is the preparation for perfecting the bride of Christ who will rule and reign with Christ in eternity future. The eternal purpose of God for this present world and His creation and the church age is to prepare a Kingdom people to rule over the world yet to come. For He did not subject to angels the world to come, Hebrews 2:5.

Just as the construction of a house requires much thought, preparation, and personal effort, so too does the progression of our spiritual life. A house cannot be built on a foundation that has poor footings. If this happens it will contribute to an improper or substandard base that cannot maintain what is built on top of it. Solomon writes, "Unless the LORD builds the house, its builder's labor in vain..." (Psalms 127:1 NIV). This book, "Construction, Obstruction, or Destruction" is the first volume in a series on the topic of the Lord constructing the perfect house-that is, completing us just the way that He intended us to be. Like building a house, we must follow Him appropriately as He guides us. True spiritual understanding will always manifest itself through application that honors Christ and gives glory to God. Dr. Rock D Moore, author, pastor, husband, and father has an Ed.D. in Human Services/Counseling and has served in various ministerial and leadership roles for over 25 years. Rock and his wife, Michelle, have been married ten years, and have one daughter, Faith. He is currently the pastor of a new church plant in Southern California.

Pastor Bob Russell shares the ten principles upon which Southeast Christian Church, one of the largest and fastest growing churches in America, was founded. He shares not only the story of one of the most amazing churches in America, but also what your church can become if you follow the principles and allow God to build your church. Can the church truly be the "city on a hill that cannot be hidden" that Jesus talked about in the Sermon on the Mount? Can it grow large enough to attract throngs of seekers and yet be loving enough to care for each individual that comes? Bob Russell, pastor of Southeast Christian Church—one of the largest and fastest growing churches in America—says that it most certainly can. But it can only be done when we are submissive to God's will and allow Him to build that church. In the pages of this far-sighted, uncompromising book, Bob Russell and his son Rusty share the ten principles upon which this remarkable church was founded. Throughout the book, you will see God's mighty power at work in a church that began in 1962 with only 50 members and has now grown to over 14,000 and has become a bustling "city on a hill" whose beaming faith powerfully impacts its community and the world. This book shares not only the story of one of the most amazing churches in America but also the story of what your church can become as you follow these ten time-tested principles and allow God to build your church.

The Lord Jesus Christ said, “I will build my church…” However, a builder does not build without first having a purpose and a plan. The Bible reveals God as a Wise Master Builder who builds according to a divine pattern, and shows us that the fulfillment of His divine pattern always results in an outpouring of the Holy Spirit. The Lord has only one divine pattern that He follows to build His church. For nearly three hundred years after “The Day of Pentecost,” the church experienced unprecedented success by following the divine pattern that Jesus revealed to His disciples. •What was the divine pattern that Jesus revealed to His disciples? •Why did the early church continuously experience God’s power and glory? •How could the early church have such an enormous impact in every society that it touched? •What is today’s church lacking that prevents it from enjoying the same success and impact? If you desire to experience the same continuous power and glory of the Lord, as those in the early church experienced, then “The Master’s Building Plan” is the place for you to start. This book will challenge the church to evaluate its current design in the light of Jesus’ divine pattern.

God's New Testament economy is to build the church with Christ through the kingdom. The church is God's goal, God's desire and destination. His intention is to build the church. As we all know, in order to build anything we need certain material. The material for the building of the church is Christ. Along with the material, we also need the method of building. In Matthew 16 we see the goal, the material, and the method. The goal is the church, the material is Christ, and the method is the kingdom.

Every pastor wants to have a vibrant, dynamic church. There are many popular models for church growth based on outstanding churches led by outstanding pastors. But unfortunately, specific models are temporary and go out of style quickly. Author Gary McIntosh explores the biblical principles for church growth and applies them to today's culture. Instead of concentrating on the ephemeral how of church growth, he focuses on the unchanging why. McIntosh defines church growth as "all that is involved in bringing men and women who do not have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ into fellowship with him and into responsible church membership." In other words, church growth is effective evangelism, not a methodology for increasing membership. According to Biblical Church Growth, growing churches always evidence a desire to fulfill the Great Commission by cooperating with God in building a faithful church. Using personal stories and current statistics as well as numerous biblical examples, the author sets forth ten basic principles that provide an eternal foundation for helping any church-large or small-achieve lasting vitality and growth.

Psalm 11:3 "If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?" What are the foundations in the church? We find the answer in Acts 2:42-47. Verse 42 establishes the pattern we need to follow which says; "And they continued steadfastly in the apostles' doctrine, prayer, fellowship and in breaking of bread." In a few words we can say: in the bible, in prayer, in fellowship and in worship. We must focus on these four as Jesus explains the need for foundations; 24 "Therefore everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them may be compared to a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25 "And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house; and yet it did not fall, for it had been founded on the rock." (Matt 7:24-25) The important thing about foundations is that they must not be moved and changed. In the church we need to be steadfast, unmovable, and always abounding in the work of the Lord.

What beliefs are core to the Christian faith? This book is here to help you understand the reason for your hope as a Christian so that you can see it with fresh sight and invite others into the conversation. A lot of Christians take their story—the narratives that give rise to their beliefs—for granted. They pray, go to church, perhaps even read their Bible. But they might be stuck if a stranger asked them to explain what they believe and why they believe it. Author, pastor, and theologian Mike Horton unpacks the essential and basic beliefs that all Christians share in a way that is easy to understand and applicable to our lives today. And in a way that will make you excited to be a Christian! Core Christianity covers topics like: Jesus as both fully God and fully man. The doctrine of the Trinity. The goodness of God despite a broken world. The ways God speaks. The meaning of salvation. What is the Christian calling? Includes discussion questions for individual or group use. This introduction to the basic doctrines of Christianity is perfect for those who are new to the faith, as well as those who have an interest in deepening their understanding of what it means to be a follower of Jesus Christ.
