The Whole Truth
Douglas Wilson
"As the people of God, we are being gathered. But we cannot be gathered without being gathered together. And once we are gathered together, we face the glorious calling of life together. But in order to maintain this, we have to keep emphasizing the basics—gospel, love, forgiveness, truth. And the fact is that in the time of the coronavirus scare, these truths about koinonia must be prioritized by us, and not placed on the back burner.
"One of the things that has happened over the last couple of months is that we have started to accept some unbiblical definitions of words like "essential". The only way to say that our gathering, our worship, our singing, is unessential is by saying that the church is unessential.
"We cannot invite Christ to accompany us without inviting His bride to accompany Him."
