'The Church'
What does it mean to truly experience a Spiritual life?
This a very good question. To us it simply means that God is the Living and actual Head of the Church. It means that all believers who gather in his name, meet under his headship. History/Scripture teaches us that there is only one head of the body, and 'All Gods Are ONE God'.
No one religious firgure is the right one and Man is not head of the church. All believers comprise 'The Church,' and no matter where we gather to express and share our Spiritual joy, we are still the church. Going to a building every Sunday morning does not make a church!
Unity as a whole:
No matter how you choose to gather as the Church, in a traditional way, more informally, or house-to-house, the whole unit is essential. The key to a life of fellowship with each other is in the overflow which comes from indiviudual fellowship (or communion) with the Spirit. The Spirit is the REAL active Presence in our lives! Find comfort in this, for we are all part of Life's Church. I also encourage outdoors worship whenever possible, its important to be ONE with all life.Today those in the Spiritual moment recognize that being a part of the church is more than just going from Sunday meeting to Sunday meeting. It's more than just listening to hours of teaching or getting on committees. Worship is much more than Sundays in a building. The life of the 'Church' is found in the fellowship that goes on between each member, and the ensuing overflow of that fellowship into relationships with brothers and sisters.
Remove the Organizational structure that has come to be called 'the church, worship where ever the Spirit leads you, find Spiritual joy in this freedom. It isn't easy, there will always be someone who attempts to come in to take over.
