I am very excited about the lessons that i had with you Ps Ralph.I must say they have helped me to grow more spiritually.This lessons has shown me how much has Jesus loved his body and that we as the body of Christ we must follow on his steps to love one another and to bring unity inside the church. Through this i think i can be able to help my church in those areas where i think we're weak at. Even towards the greater church around the world we are still lacking love one another,also to speak with one voice according to scriptures and to bring unity amongst ourselves. I think we can conquer Satan if we can stick into the word of God and do what the word of God tells us to do. I have enjoyed this lessons and I'm looking forward to have other Bible studies.

In what sense should we love the church because it is our own body? Husband love your wive just as Christ also loved the church and gave himself for her.So husband ouhgt to love their own wives as their own bodies.He who loves his wife loves himself,for no one ever hated his own flesh but nourishes it.

Jesus said to his disciples whoever wants to be His disciple must deny himselfand take the cross and follow Him.(Math16:24) Jesus also said He is the vine, we are the branches,he who abides in Him, and He in him, bears much fruit for without Him we can do nothing.

In what sense is the church "glorious"and resplendent?

On the last day when He comes as the bride He will represent us as the glorious and splendid church in heaven.

Jesus himself told his disciples that they're cleansed because of the word which He have spoken to them.All the people who are belived in him are washed,sanctified and cleansed by the washing of the water with the word of God. How should the word of God be implemented in a congregation to achieve this process. There must be Bible studies, home cells, and symposiums where a word of can be clarified to those people who do not understand the word of God. Some they do not understand on how to walk with God after repenting. How can we use the word of God for purification without relying upon threats of hellfire to scare people into repentance. Jesus himself told us that we need the Holy Spirit who can give us wisdom to preach the gospel so that we may mature in the faith, grow in grace and stand firm on the truth of the gospel of Christ.He is the one who will teach us how to speak with people.So that we may not be judgemental.

In his word God said be holy because I'm holy.Yes, Jesus sacrifice for the church that is why the word says by His blood we were cleansed for our sins.
