About the House of God
By: Samuel Gyapong
“These things I write to you, though I hope to come to you shortly; but if I am delayed, I write so that you may know how you ought to conduct yourself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.” 1 Timothy 3:14-15
This passage shows that God has a house or dwelling place and that house is known as the Church. The Church is the saved of Christ and the also identified in the scriptures as the kingdom, the body, the temple of God, The Church of God or The Church of Christ.

By: Samuel Gyapong

This should naturally raise some important questions...
a. Why should we examine ourselves?
b. By what standard should we examine ourselves
c. What sort of questions should we be asking ourselves?
