GROWTH: THE PROBLEM OF CHURCH

Hello steemians, greetings to you all, am using this medium to welcome you all to my blog today, titled Growth, the problem of church, May you be blessed as you read.
Firstly, All living things grow, you dont have to make them grow. It is a natural thing for a living organism to grow of they are healthy. Lack of growth usually indicates unhealthy situation, possible a disease. Thus, since the church is a living organist, it is an organism not an organization. It is alive, if a church is not growing, that means it is dying. The key issue for churches in the 21st centuryis church health.
When a congregation is healthy, they grow the way God intends. The healthy churches doesn't need tricks to grow. They grow naturally.. Colosians. 2:19

GROWTH VS CHURCH
*The word church is derived from a greek word ekklesia which connotes the called out ones...
*The church is made up of those who had their sing forgiven because of the shed blood of our Lord Jesus on calvary. REVELATION 1;5
*Each loyal gathering of believers is called a church.
*ALL believers of the word are called the church

*Each loyal gathering of believers is called the church Mattew 18:20
The scripture makes a distinction between the loyal church and the universal church. All people who believe in Jesus for salvation are part of the universal church. But Unless they join themselves to a local body of believe, it is difficult to conceive membership in the church universal means....

1. Growth is a characteristics of a living
2. God wants the church to grow numerically
3. The arent of growth is the word of God because it is the food for the soul. 1 Peter 2:2
