Local Church Discussions - View Single Post - Some Good Things to Come Out of the Recovery?

Here is where we are so far regarding good things the LC has promoted (again, not necessarily originated by the LC):

1. Open meetings - encouraging all to function
2. The Emphasis on the Indwelling Christ
3. Calling on the name of the Lord
4. Taking in the Pure Milk of the Word
5. One church; One city
6. The Building

So I mentioned a few posts ago where I heard a word from a radio preacher (Steve Gregg) recently who spoke a really rich word about how the church is a dwelling place of God. He gave several verses (OT & NT) regarding the building up for this purpose. I was nourished and encouraged. Years ago, while in the LC, I heard a lot about "The Building." But due to what I would call immaturity, I did not comprehend what this was about fully.

About 5 years ago I was camping in Colorado, and free from so many of the normal distractions, the Lord spoke something clearly to me. He told me that He was conveying His strongest desire in a way that we could understand, namely His Body, His Bride, and His Building. He impressed on me that there is nothing a man is more desirous of and focused on than these three things - his own body, his wife, and where he lives.

So the Lord has conveyed His heart's desire to us in a way we can easily identify with!
