The church is the worlds only hope. We should be the example and we should be the light. The Bible says that we have been called kings and priests. Let's think about this for a second.The title king denotes authority. This means that the church is God's authority here on the earth. We should lead the way and make things happen. Then we see that we are not only Kings but we are also priests. A priest is someone who is subject to God. So not only have we been given great authority through Jesus Christ, but we are also people under authority. We take our orders from the King of Kings. A priest is someone that is set a part for the work of the ministry. We have all been called to be God's hands and to be His feet. We are the arm of the Lord extended to this world.
The early church in the book of Acts grew by the thousands daily. How was this accomplished. It was not accomplished by one man, but by many people filled with the Holy Spirit, spreading the message of Jesus Christ. This is why it is so important for us to continue to spread the Word. The church is made up of many people, but we have all been called to operate and carry ourselves as kings and priests, humbly following the voice of the Lord. God desires His church to grow. He desires us to be His ambassadors.
