God has no orphans -- only family. He has provided for every child of His through the unlimited resources of heaven. No matter what mistakes we have made, God cares for those who have chosen to enter a love relationship with Him. Our world is full of hurting people who have no hope, but God made provision for their every need through Jesus Christ. He then made Christ the head of the churches He has established, in order that He might bring healing through His people who have come to know His saving grace. That is the strategy of God’s redemptive plan to touch the world.
Local churches, the gathered people of
God, are crucial to God’s eternal purpose in salvation and world redemption. If
you are a member of a local church, by the direction and will of God, you are
most fortunate. You are exactly where God wants you and where God will unfold
to you the fullness of salvation. And it is here where God will cause you to
reach out to a lost world for His glory.
