The Church in Denver

OUR TESTIMONY CONCERNING THE WORK OF CHRIST

We testify that Jesus, the Son of God, has come once already. In His first coming, He lived a sinless life that manifested God Himself to humanity, then He died on the cross for our sins and rose again from the dead on the third day.

We testify that Christ is today fulfilling his promise that He would build His church (Matthew 16:16). He is doing this in all the genuine local churches by causing His saints to grow in the divine life into Him as the Head of the Body (Ephesians 4:16).

We testify that Christ will come once more. In His second coming He will bring His believers into the fullness of God's salvation through the transfiguration of their bodies; bring an end to this present evil age; and bring in the new heavens and the new earth, at the center of which will be the New Jerusalem.

OUR TESTIMONY TO THE ONENESS OF THE BODY OF CHRIST

We also testify to all the Christians that the Body of Christ is uniquely one and cannot be divided. By meeting simply as Christians-without taking any other name to separate us from other Christians-we are able to keep the genuine oneness of the Body. On this ground we enjoy the fullest blessing of the divine life, because God's highest blessing is always found where the believers come together in the oneness of the Body of Christ (cf. Psalm 133).

As is true of all believers in Christ, we are members of His one Body, the church. In order to practice the oneness of the Body with all the Christians in Denver, we meet as the church in Denver. We are in fellowship with over 2,000 local churches worldwide to express the one Body of Christ.
