À propos de ce contenu audio
In Episode 3, Justin, Nathan, and Garrison turn to one of the most critical questions in ecclesiology: How can we recognize a true church? Moving beyond feelings, cultural trends, or institutional labels, this episode examines the classic biblical “marks” that distinguish a faithful church from a counterfeit one. First, we explore the pure preaching of the Word, considering why faithful, doctrinally sound exposition is the lifeblood of the church’s health and unity—and what is lost when novelty or pragmatism replaces the ministry of Scripture. Next, we reflect on the right administration of the ordinances, showing how baptism and the Lord’s Supper are not optional symbols but Christ-ordained means that visibly proclaim the gospel and shape our communal identity. Finally, we address the often-misunderstood practice of loving and biblical church discipline, arguing that far from being harsh, faithful correction is an expression of Christ’s shepherding care for His people. Together, these marks reveal that the true church is not defined by size, style, or influence, but by its fidelity to Christ’s Word, Christ’s ordinances, and Christ’s loving rule over His people.
