DAILY READINGS: Deut. 1; Eccl. 1 to 2:11; Luke 6:1-19
And it came to pass, that for a whole year they assembled themselves
with the church, and taught much people. And the disciples
were called Christians fi rst in Antioch. Acts 11:25-26
Christians form, individually and collectively, the body of Christ
which is His church (1 Cor. 12:27; Col. 1:18). At Antioch in the fi rst
century, there did not exist any other named Christian group. How
sad that so many divisions have come since then. Yet the truth still
remains, the church which is His body, is comprised of born again
believers alone. Do you belong? —Duncan Maxwell
The Church’s one Foundation, is Jesus Christ her Lord;
She is His new creation, by water and the word:
From heaven He came and sought her, to be His holy bride;
With His own blood He bought her, and for her life He died. —S. J. Stone
