We live in a changing world that is full of questions, and the answers must come from the unchanging truth of God's word.

Today we look into Scripture with Scott Pauli to discover what the Bible says.

Ask the Lord to speak to you and to give you truth to share with others.

If you want to know about any institution, perhaps the best place to start is listen to the words of the founder.

Recently, I read an interview with Trut Kathy, the founder of Chick-fil-A.

It was fascinating, not just because of his business sense, but because of his dedication to Christ, his Christian testimony.

But it was so intriguing to me just to hear from the founder's mouth, his own words, the foundational principles that they'd built their

company upon. Well, if you want to know something about the church of the Lord Jesus Christ,

maybe it would be good if we ask the founder. In our world today, everybody has an

opinion. Everybody wants to give their idea. This is what I think of church. This is what we want church

to be. Wait a minute. Let's get a word from the founder today. What does he say about his church?

We began this study in Matthew chapter 16, verse 18, where Jesus said,

and I say also unto thee that thou art Peter, and upon this rock, I will build my church,

and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. So we know it's his church. We know he's

building his church. We know he's building his church upon himself. It's not upon Peter that the church

is being built. As a matter of fact, there's a little divine humor here. Peter's name literally means

a little pebble, a little rock. And then he goes on to say, but I'm going to build my church upon

this rock. In other words, upon a great rock, a great truth.

What is that great truth?

Oh, it is the great truth of who Jesus is.

Paul would later say of the foundation can no man lay,

then that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.
