Summary

The popular sentiment, “believe all women,” is certainly a recipe for disaster. And yet, just as women are capable of bearing false witness, churches are also capable of being abusive.

0:00.0	All right, listen, guys, I get it. Many of you are unable to financially support this ministry
0:04.6	because you're spending your cash in your lives on raising young children in the fear and
0:09.5	admonition of the Lord. Praise God for you and that endeavor. However, algorithms are a thing.
0:16.2	Shadow banning, sadly, is a thing. And one major way that you can help to expand the reach and effectiveness of
0:23.4	this ministry that doesn't cost you a dime is by spending just a few moments leaving us a five-star
0:30.0	review. Also, perhaps even more effective than that, you can share our podcast with a friend.
0:36.3	We hope you'll take the time to do so. Thank you so much.
0:39.6	God bless. Again, for those who are new to Covenant Bible Church, we are a church that is committed

1:29.2	that book of the Bible being the book of Joshua. But for today, the topic at hand is church
1:36.2	membership. Church membership. This is something that I'm committed to preaching, on average,
1:42.7	probably twice a year. Because I believe that it is vital
1:46.5	to the Christian life that it's important and that in many evangelical churches today the
1:51.9	concept and principle of church membership is radically neglected so today we are going to be
1:59.3	looking at the importance of local church membership.
2:04.9	In the beginning of your notes, as a brief introduction to this sermon, I've written the following.
2:11.5	The Bible contains at least five strands of evidence for local church membership.
