The Church: The Gospel Made Visible (9Marks)

The Church: The Gospel Made Visible (9Marks)

Christians face lots of practical questions when it comes to life in the local church: How is the gospel displayed in our lives together? What are we supposed to do and believe? Different followers answer differentlyâ€”even as they preach the same gospel! What should we think about such differences?

A churchâ€™s life, doctrine, worship, and even polity are important issues. Yet they are so rarely addressed. The Church is Mark Deverâ€™s primer on the doctrine of the church for all who see Scripture alone as a sufficient authority for the doctrine and life of the local church. He explains to the reader what the Bible says about the nature and purpose of the churchâ€” what it is, what itâ€™s for, what it does.

Indeed, Scripture teaches us about all of life and doctrine, including how we should assemble for corporate worship and how weâ€™re to organize our corporate life together. God has revealed himself by his Word. He is speak- ing to us, preparing us to represent him today, and to see him tomorrow! A congregation of regenerate members, fulfilling the responsibilities given to us by Christ himself in his Word, regularly meeting together, led by a body of godly elders, is the picture God has given us in his Word of his church.
