Lesson 4 · Upper Room: Growing Deeper

The Church — God’s Family

When we are born again, God adds us to His family — the church, the body of Christ. We are not meant to walk alone.

Key verse

“For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body--whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free--and have all been made to drink into one Spirit.”

1 Corinthians 12:13 · NKJV

One body

“For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body” (1 Corinthians 12:13). Every believer is a needed member of Christ’s body (1 Corinthians 12:27).

Devoted together

The early church “continued steadfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers.” (Acts 2:42) They loved, shared, and worshiped together.

Don’t forsake it

“Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together… but exhorting one another.” (Hebrews 10:25) Belong to a local church, serve, and grow.
