25. "If I could only be sure 1 was in the right church, I would feel secure; but there are so many different churches that I get all confused and upset.”

The Church is not the Ark of Safety. The Church is the aggregate of all who believe in the Lord Jesus and who have therefore been baptized by the Holy Spirit into one Body. This is not a mere organization, however ancient and venerable. If you were sure you were in the right church (some earthly organization), and trusted in that for salvation, you would be forever lost! Your trust must be in the Head of the Church, the risen Christ. He is the only Saviour. All ecclesiastical pretention is vain and to rest in any kind of church membership is an empty deception. Christ alone is the Ark that will carry you safely through all the storms of judgment. No matter what denomination you turn to, you will never find salvation in allying yourself with it, but when you come to Jesus, you are then prepared to enjoy fellowship with His people.
"I love Thy kingdom, Lord,
The house of Thine abode,
The Church our blest Redeemer saved
With His own precious blood.”
