Can you be a Christian outside of the church? The resounding answer from scripture is "No." To be a friend of Jesus means that you follow His commands, specifically that you "love one another." Who should we love? We should love our brothers and sisters in the church. We are one body, saved to serve one another in community as we do this we bear eternal fruit for His kingdom.
Sermon Text: Act 2:42-47 & 2:32-37
