WHAT'S RIGHT WITH THE CHURCH?

MATTHEW 16:13-21

Pastor Rick Jackson

I. THE FOUNDATION OF THE CHURCH IS RIGHT!

1. JESUS SAID HE, HIMSELF, IS THE FOUNDATION [Mt. 16:13-21, Lk. 6:46-49]

2. PAUL SAID JESUS CHRIST IS THE FOUNDATION [I Cor. 3:10-11]

3. PETER SAID JESUS CHRIST IS THE CORNER STONE [I Pet. 2:1-8]

II. THE FOCUS OF THE CHURCH IS RIGHT!

At least it is if the Church:

1. EVANGELIZES THE LOST [Mt. 28:18-19a]

2. INSTRUCTS THE SAVED [Mt. 28:19b-20]

3. GLORIFIES THE LORD [Mt. 5:16, Jn. 15:8, I Co. 10:31, Col. 3:17, 23]

III. THE FUTURE OF THE CHURCH IS RIGHT!

1. THE RAPTURE OF THE CHURCH [I Co. 15:50-58]

2. THE RETURN OF THE CHURCH [Jude 14, Rev. 19:11-16]

3. THE REIGN OF THE CHURCH [2 Timothy 2:12, Revelation 5:10, 11:15, 20:6, 22:5]
