What does it mean to be in Christ as a member of the General Assembly?
What does it mean to be in Christ as a member of the General Assembly?
Is there a place for me in Christ if I don't believe I was chosen for discipleship? If I'm not a worker of God am I able to be saved?
Yes there is a place for you and yes you are able to be saved if you are not a worker of God. We have composed a quick message to the many in the general assembly to comfort you, enlighten you on the grace of God on your life, and provide clarity on what God is seeking from you as a member of the general assembly:
Confess that Yeshua (Jesus) is Lord and be baptized in His name.
"But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart”—that is, the word of faith which we are preaching, that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved;"
Romans 10:8-9
Now when they heard this, they were pierced to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, “Brethren, what shall we do?” Peter said to them, “Repent, and each of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. For the promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off, as many as the Lord our God will call to Himself.”
Acts 2:37-39
Believe that YHWH Elohim (the Lord God) is holy, righteous, and good while humbly admitting yourself to be a sinner.
“Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven."
Matthew 5:3
Believe in Yahusha Mashiach (Jesus Christ)'s death for our sins and resurrection on the third day.
For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received, that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, and that He appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve.
1 Corinthians 15:3-5
Abide by the four concessions given to the Gentiles by the Holy Spirit. (Acts 15:19-29)
Abstain from things sacrificed to idols
Abstain from blood
Abstain from things strangled
Abstain from fornication
Seek to understand Paul (the Christ appointed minister to gentiles)'s writings. (Romans - Philemon)
But on the contrary, seeing that I had been entrusted with the gospel to the uncircumcised, just as Peter had been to the circumcised (for He who effectually worked for Peter in his apostleship to the circumcised effectually worked for me also to the Gentiles), and recognizing the grace that had been given to me, James and Cephas and John, who were reputed to be pillars, gave to me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, so that we might go to the Gentiles and they to the circumcised.
Galatians 2:7-9
Join a physical church that abides by the laws of physical churches set by Paul in 1 & 2 Timothy.
"and let us consider how to stimulate one another to love and good deeds, not forsaking our own assembling together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another; and all the more as you see the day drawing near."
Hebrews 10:24-25
Love one another.
Owe nothing to anyone except to love one another; for he who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the law. For this, “You shall not commit adultery, You shall not murder, You shall not steal, You shall not covet,” and if there is any other commandment, it is summed up in this saying, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” Love does no wrong to a neighbor; therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.
Romans 13:8-10
