We are the Living Temple. We are the Living Church!

Brothers, sisters…

The church is not a building. We are the church:

“Consequently, you are fellow citizens with God’s people and members of God’s household, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the chief cornerstone. In him the whole building is joined together and rises to become a holy temple in the Lord.”

– Ephesians 2:19 – 21

And check this out —

“God does not dwell in a temple made with hands.”

– Acts 7:48

God no longer dwells in a temple. He dwells is us.

As Peter says, we are living stones.

“And you are living stones that God is building into his spiritual temple.”

– 1 Peter 2:5

We are the temple. We are the church.

Amen!

Hey!

Hey there. I’m Steve Edwards. I’m an actor, a writer, a teacher and a preacher!

This site explores the meaning of St. Paul’s words ‘by grace we are saved’. I hope it helps you to understand that we are loved by God completely, purely, fully, regardless of our mistakes. He loves us not because of who we are, but because of who He is, and what He did for us on the cross. Amen!

Please explore the hundreds of articles on the different books of the bible, and how the bible reveals that our holiness is a gift from God, and doesn’t depend on us and our good works. Thank God for that!

You can also find me preaching about God’s amazing grace on Tik Tok @christianactor.
