Church: A Royal Family Part 2

God, in His great mercy, saves sinners. He gives us new birth through His living Word. But He does not leave us isolated. Instead, He brings us into His royal family. There as brothers and sisters in the household of God, the local church, as living stones we are being built together into a spiritual house. A people among whom God delights to dwell. Adopted into His royal family, we are called to live as a holy community, reflecting and proclaiming Jesus Christ to the world around us and being sanctified by His Word.
