Listen from:
11. Because believers, not the building, constitute the Church. (Eph. 1:22-23; 1 Cor. 12:27; Acts 8:1;17:24.)
12. The Church is the Body of Christ. (Eph. 1:22-23.) It is composed only of real born again believers, living stones. (Acts 2:47; 1 Peter 2:5; 1 Thess. 1:1.)
The Kingdom takes in all that professes to be real, even though it is false. Simon Magus in Acts 8:13 is a typical example of one baptized into the Kingdom, but still unsaved, and so never forming a part of the Church. Matt. 13:47-48 took in the bad as well as the good.
13. Of the Kingdom. He used them first to open the Kingdom to the Jews on the day of Pentecost, (Acts 2:14, 38, 39) and to open the Kingdom to the Gentiles in Acts 10:34-48.
14. The Holy Spirit, the Servant in Luke 14:17, typified by Eliezer who went to seek a bride (the Church) for Isaac (the Lord Jesus,) his master. The Jews in Acts 7 resisted His pleading with their hearts. (Acts 7:51.)
15. To be the pillar and ground of the Truth; (1 Tim. 3:15.) to be God's light bearer in the World. (Rev. 1:20; Phil. 2:15)
