Church and Kingdom Through the Authority of the Ekklesia
Jesus builds his church as an assembly of kingdom people who display what God’s reign looks like under King Jesus.
*Through Matthew 16, the church receives the keys of the kingdom to open the door for others to come under Jesus’ rule.
*When believers live out their kingdom mission with purpose and identity, the kingdom of God becomes visible through the church.
