  15. The Church Jesus Built "And I also say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it” Matthew 16:18

  16. The Church Jesus Built Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone, Ephesians 2:19-20

  17. Why Did Jesus Build It? The necessity of fellowship Therefore if there is any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection and mercy, fulfill my joy by being like-minded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind. Philippians 2:1

  18. Why Did Jesus Build It? The necessity of correction Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, considering yourself lest you also be tempted. Galatians 6:1

  23. You DO Need Correction Harsh discipline is for him who forsakes the way, And he who hates correction will die. Proverbs 15:10 He who keeps instruction is in the way of life, But he who refuses correction goes astray. Proverbs 10:17

  24. Resent the Brethren Hypocrites Unloving Inconsiderate

  25. Reflect on Ourselves Hypocrites But who is closer to God? Unloving But am I loving? Inconsiderate Have I been considerate?

  26. Satan’s Plan to Invalidate the Church If Satan can: Make you see the church as unnecessary Make you forsake the assembly Make you resent the brethren Your spiritual warfare is lost

  27. How Do We Win? Understand we all need improvement Romans 12:1-2 Forgive the brethren their weaknesses Galatians 6:1-2
