Today’s society would say: “We like Jesus but not the Church.” How about our understanding of the Church? Our confession of the Church becomes drastically different depending on where we choose as a point of departure. We may proceed from our point of view, such as faith, holy living, church organizations, like-minded small groups, or from the Lord’s words, His means of grace, and His means of grace office. In this course, we will examine how the confession of the Church comes from our Lord. Ubi Christus, ibi ecclesia. (3.0 CEU)
