Church PLANTS
Design an ad for a new church. The ad should include:
-Name of church
-Vision or mission or purpose statement
-When and where it will meet
-A logo, illustration, picture, or symbol
-Anything else important to include
The catch: Don't just design the church however you think one should look like; but use only the information in the following scriptures to guide you:
- Matthew 16:13-20
- Acts 2: 42-47
- Acts 4:32-37
- Romans 12:1-11
- 1 Corinthians 12:27-31; 1 Corinthians 14:26-32
- Ephesians 4:1-13

Provocative Kraybill quotes:
"The altar of a church building is no closer to God's heart than the restroom" (p. 163, read in context)
Related: see: God in the Bathroom?
2) "With one stroke, Jesus erases titles".."Titles are foreign to the Body of Christ. (p 226-229)
See:
Pastors in Kraybill's tradition (Mennonite) have not been historically comfortable with Related: see: God in the Bathroom?
"the basin, the cross and the tomb become pivotal signs of the new kingdom. The cross has long served as the preeminent symbol-the flag-of the Christian church. Only looking at the cross, however. detracts us from its very reason for being. Three upside down symbols flow together in the gospel story: the basin, the cross, and the tomb. The basin is actually the foremost Christian symbol. Jesus himself voluntarily selects a basin to capture the meaning of his ministry. The crossis a Roman symbol, a harsh sign of the state's power to execute criminals. The ruling powers used the cross, an instrument of death, to respond to Jesus' basin initiatives. But God has the last word with the empty tomb. It stands throughout the ages as sign of God's reign over they forces of evil." pp. 242, read all of 241-247
2) "With one stroke, Jesus erases titles".."Titles are foreign to the Body of Christ. (p 226-229)
See:
any title, really (and going way back, salaried pastors).. St. Paul (oops, Paul, the saint) didn't seem to be either. We call him "The Apostle Paul," but though he was entitled to, he never called himself that: "Paul (comma), an apostle."

KINGDOM
>>How does the Kingdom "come" from the "future"?:
Many Jews of Jesus' day (and actually, the Greeks) thought of the Kingdom of God as largely a future identity/reality/location.
So when Jesus, in Matthew 4:17 announces that he, as King, is ALREADY bringing in the Kingdom,
this not only subverted expectations, but sounded crazy....and like he was claiming to bring the future into the present.
The Jews talked often about "this age" (earth/now) and "the age to come." (heaven/future).
"Age to come" was used in a way that it was virtually synonymous with "The Kingdom."
Scripture suggests that:
The "age to come" (the Kingdom)
has in large part already come (from the future/heaven)
into "this age"
(in the present/on the earth
by means of the earthy ministry of Jesus: King of the Kingdom.
Thus, Hebrews 6:4-8 offers that disciples ("tamidim") of Jesus have
"already (in this age) tasted the powers of the age to come."
In Jesus, in large part, the age to come has come.
The Future has visited the present,
