Sermon No: 144520-The Biblical Church

Sermon synopsis: Christian fellowship is something that (in countries with religious freedom) would typically be done in a building we call a church.
But the term “church”, as we understand it, was unknown in Jesus’ time.
So what did Jesus mean when he said, “on this rock I will build My church [ecclesia], and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it.” (Matt 16:18, NKJV)
