2023: Ecclesiology
In our first Conferencia Biblica de la Gracia, we will be learning about "Ecclesiology.” This is the doctrine of the church, and is the manual for "how to do church.” It is necessary that the men whom God has called to lead His church know this manual. Though we certainly do not intend to cover all the topics of this doctrine in a single day, we will be touching on issues in which the local church seems to lack clarity. These include:
- The Biblical Gospel
- The Purpose of the Local Church
- The Means of Grace within the Local Church
This will be a time in which we will be exposed to what Scripture says and will study these fundamental doctrines so that the leadership of the church will be equipped and instructed. The intention will be to immediately implement what is learned in the local church and thus see the edification of the body of Christ, that is, believers.
The church’s leaders are called to present themselves approved before God as workmen who are unashamed (2 Timothy 2:15), therefore, the leadership of Christ’s church cannot afford to misunderstand these doctrines.
