As we wait for the kingdom of God to come in full, the church does the work of the kingdom in this world. We, as Christ’s body in the world today, continue his work as we generously serve widows, orphans, and all those who are so often forced to the fringes of our society.

For those whom God has justified (legally declared to be in the right), he is also at work sanctifying (making holy) by removing our sin from us and causing us to go on to do good works. In order to sanctify us, God has given us the preaching of the Word (which we experience in Joyful Worship) as well as the church. Christians are members of one body, and we are all responsible for building each other up to Christian maturity.
