"Going from a Good Church to a Great Church" (Fifth Street Baptist Church 181st Anniversary)

We had a blast tonight at The Historic Fifth Street helping to celebrate their anniversary. I love the chance to preach for my pastor & my home church. I also love my CHURCH "The Luke", they showed up and showed out. The Reverend Robert E. Childs, who passed away last week usually preaches this revival, so it was a joy and a privilege to do this.

We preached from Ephesians 1: 15-23 "A Great Church" . First we have to realize that We are the body of Christ. Not just our church but the universal church. We complete the Spiritual Body of Christ.
We embody the Power of Christ. We represent the greatness of Christ's Power. We show the world who Christ is. Sometime it seems like Christ is so far away, Paul said We are Christ, the power of God, and the wisdom of God.
We complete the work of Christ. We can't find deliverance, knowledge, guidance, perfect assurance or the true meaning of life. We've been charged to go into all the world and make disciples, to teach, to baptize in the name of The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirt. We've got work to do.
