Description

What does it mean for a church to be pure? In this episode, we explore the Baptist distinctive of Pure Church Membership—the conviction that church membership is reserved for those who have been born again by faith in Christ and have testified to that faith through baptism.

Pastor Ben explains how regenerate membership shapes the church’s identity, how loving discipline protects its purity, and how the Lord’s Table unites believers in sincere fellowship.
A pure church is not a perfect church—but a repentant, redeemed, and holy people devoted to Christ.
