  • Summary

  • Church was not created by the writing of the Bible or by a group of people who just wanted to get Jesus’ philosophy and teachings out to the world. It wasn’t even created in the moment of the resurrection. After His resurrection, Jesus told His followers not to rush out and start preaching the gospel (or even making disciples). He told them to wait. Wait for the Holy Spirit to come upon them. The Church was founded when the Holy Spirit descended, and a new kind of interactive life with God was available. A life with God that did not rely on Jesus’ physical presence on Earth, rather it was Jesus living within believers. And what’s the first thing the Holy Spirit does? Fulfills the words of Jesus’ prayer in John 17 - He unites believers from around the world in love for Him. The Church explodes, and immediately we get a picture of the kind of unity and community that the Holy Spirit creates.
