The Stature of the Fullness of Christ

 

Written and presented by David Mantock

It is the will of the Lord that Christians "grow up into him in all things" (Eph. 4:15), and so he has equipped us with all that is necessary to fight the good fight of faith. However, for us to really excel, we must take hold of everything that God has put at our disposal and not neglect any of it.

Jeremiah used the poignant expression of eating God's Word (see Jeremiah 15:16). That is what we need to do too, but it is just one part. We must also make sure that we stir up the gift of holy Spirit within us (see 2 Timothy 1:6); that is another part. Yet another important part is our awareness and love of the church: We do need each other in the body of Christ. In the church, we build each other up; we watch out for one another; we love each member of that body with the same love that we have seen in Jesus Christ.

The Stature of the Fullness of Christ is a seminar with eighteen lessons and its purpose is to invigorate and encourage the individual Christian and particularly the church as a whole, for she is our Lord's precious bride, meant to be a "glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish"(Eph. 5:27b)
