Speaker 1: This is Pastor Rick's Daily Hope, the Bible Teaching ministry
Speaker 1: of Pastor Rick Warren. Today we begin a new series
Speaker 1: called This is Us. In these lessons, Pastor Rick shows
Speaker 1: us how being part of a church family can help
Speaker 1: meet your deepest needs. In just a few moments, we're
Speaker 1: going to tell you how you can get a copy
Speaker 1: of Pastor Rick's book for kids called Words to Love.
Speaker 2: Buy.
Speaker 1: This book takes children on a joyful, grace filled journey
Speaker 1: exploring the power of words. They'll learn that while words
Speaker 1: may be small, they can do big things. You can
Speaker 1: find out more by going to Pastorick dot com or
Speaker 1: by texting the word Daily to eight hundred, six hundred
Speaker 1: five thousand and four. While you listen to today's message.
Speaker 1: Right now, here's Pastor Rick with part one of a
Speaker 1: message called the Only Family that Will Last Forever.
Speaker 3: You know in life, it's very important at different times
Speaker 3: in your life. This pause and just stop and ask
Speaker 3: the question why why am I doing this? What am
Speaker 3: I doing and why am I doing this? Why always
Speaker 3: determines how and how long. Now we're going to start
Speaker 3: at the beginning. Watch up here on the screen, the
Speaker 3: Bible says in Hebrews two ten. God is the one
Speaker 3: who made everything. That's where we start. We start with
Speaker 3: God made everything, and all things are for his glory.
Speaker 3: You and every plant and animal and rock are for
Speaker 3: his glory. But he wanted to have children to share
Speaker 3: his glory. The Bible says God invented the universe because
Speaker 3: he wanted a family.
Speaker 2: God wasn't lonely. God is love, but he didn't need us.
Speaker 3: But he wanted a family to love and to share
Speaker 3: his glory, and so he created the universe. Now, the
Speaker 3: Bible says this in Ephesians chapter one. God's unchanging plan
Speaker 3: beginning of time has always been to adopt us into
Speaker 3: his own family by bringing us to himself through Jesus Christ.
Speaker 2: So the whole.
Speaker 3: Reason everything exists is God wanted a family, and he
Speaker 3: wants that family to be with him forever and ever
Speaker 3: and ever. He puts us here on earth as a
Speaker 3: trial test. But what is that family called. Well, we've
Speaker 3: talked about this. For that family is called the church,
Speaker 3: Jesus said in Ephesians.
Speaker 2: Excuse me.
Speaker 3: Jesus said in Matthew sixteen, verse eighteen, I will build
Speaker 3: my church. He didn't say I'll build a government. He
Speaker 3: didn't say I'll build a nation. He didn't say I'll
Speaker 3: build a business. He said I will build my church.
Speaker 3: Jesus is only interested. God is only interested in his family.
Speaker 3: Everything else is going to burn up. The only thing
Speaker 3: on planet Earth that's going to last is God's family.
Speaker 3: He says, I will build my church, and all the
Speaker 3: powers of Hell will not defeat it. The most successful
Speaker 3: human movement of all time is the Church of God
Speaker 3: two point three billion believers followers of Christ. The Church
Speaker 3: is the largest organization on the planet. Nothing comes close.
Speaker 3: The Church, at two point three billion believers, is bigger
Speaker 3: than China. The Church is bigger than China and the
Speaker 3: United States and.
Speaker 2: All of Europe put together.
Speaker 3: Nothing is big is the is the planet, the movement
Speaker 3: of God. You're not just part of an organization. You're
Speaker 3: part of a movement, and that movement is going to
Speaker 3: go on.
Speaker 2: For eternity in heaven.
Speaker 3: Jesus said I will build my church, and no dictator
Speaker 3: and no ism can stop it.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 3: Sometimes you hear people say, well, I love Jesus, but
Speaker 3: I don't need the Church.
Speaker 2: No.
Speaker 3: No, that's a really big mistake people make, because you
Speaker 3: can't love Jesus without loving his bride, his body, his family,
Speaker 3: his flock.
Speaker 2: You can't love Jesus.
Speaker 3: In fact, the Bible says this in Ephesians chapter five,
Speaker 3: verse twenty five. Christ loves his church. Whatever he loves,
Speaker 3: you better love to Christ loves his church, and he
Speaker 3: gave his life for it. Christ died for the church.
Speaker 3: So don't ever say it's unimportant. Don't ever say it's
Speaker 3: the only people that are going to be in heaven
Speaker 3: is the Church. Nobody else is. That's his family. It's
Speaker 3: his family. Now it has different labels on it, Methodist, Baptists, Episcopalian, Catholic, Nazarene,
Speaker 3: and Calvary Chapel. All the labels are irrelevant. The fact
Speaker 3: is the people who are the followers of Christ are
Speaker 3: a part of his family. That's all that's going to
Speaker 3: be in heaven. And he built the universe because he
Speaker 3: wanted a family. Now let's just start with the basics.
Speaker 3: What is a church? When I say the word church,
Speaker 3: some people think of a building. No, the church is
Speaker 3: not a building. The church is not a location. So
Speaker 3: when I say church, people think of something they go
Speaker 3: to attend. People often say, well, I'm going to church.
Speaker 3: Technically that's a wrong statement. The church is not something
Speaker 3: you attend. It's a family that you belong to it. Really,
Speaker 3: it'd be more accurate to not say I'm going to church.
Speaker 3: For saying I'm going to a worship service, or I'm
Speaker 3: going to a Bible study, or I'm going to a fellowship,
Speaker 3: or I'm going to an activity of the church. You
Speaker 3: can't go to a church. A church is not an event.
Speaker 3: It has events, But the church is the family of God.
Speaker 3: Church is not an event you attend. It is a
Speaker 3: family you belong to.
Speaker 2: Does that make sense?
Speaker 3: Okay, So it's not something you go to to actually say, well,
Speaker 3: I'm going to church. You really mean to say I'm
Speaker 3: going to worship or I'm going to service, or I'm going.
Speaker 2: To Bible study. Whatever.
Speaker 3: It's not a place. It's not an event, it's not
Speaker 3: an institution. I'm going to give you a very specific
Speaker 3: biblical definition of the church. I'd like for you to
Speaker 3: write these four phrases down.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 3: Number one, because once I explained this, then I'm going
Speaker 3: to show you five benefits of being a part of
Speaker 3: God's family. Number one, what is the church? The church
Speaker 3: is God's family on earth and in heaven. God's family
Speaker 3: on earth and in heaven. The Church isn't just on earth.
Speaker 3: Many people are already in heaven. So some of the
Speaker 3: church that's God's family, is already in heaven. Some of
Speaker 3: the church is still here on earth. But the Church
Speaker 3: is both in heaven and on earth, and it is
Speaker 3: God's family. One Timothy chapter three, verses fourteen and fifteen
Speaker 3: says this, I'm writing to you so that you'll know
Speaker 3: how to live in the family of God. We need
Speaker 3: to learn how to live in God's family. That family
Speaker 3: is the Church of the Living God, the support and
Speaker 3: foundation of the truth. So anytime you talk about the church,
Speaker 3: you're talking about God's family. You talk about the time
Speaker 3: you talk about God's family, you talk about the church.
Speaker 3: There is no family of God outside of the church.
Speaker 2: It is the same.
Speaker 1: You're listening to Pastor Rick's Daily Hope. Rick will be
Speaker 1: back in just a moment with the rest of today's lesson.

Speaker 4: A short time back, Pastor Rick Warren teamed up with
Speaker 4: a talented artist to create the stunning new children's book
Speaker 4: Words to Love Buy. Written with warmth and wisdom, it
Speaker 4: speaks to the hearts of little ones and takes them
Speaker 4: on a joyful, grace filled journey. Exploring the power of words.
Speaker 4: Through charming illustrations and engaging text, young readers will understand
Speaker 4: how their words can change their lives and the lives
Speaker 4: of those around them. Kids learn that while words may
Speaker 4: be small, they can do big things. Words can encourage,
Speaker 4: and they can spread love and kindness, and they can
Speaker 4: let us know we are not alone. This hardcover book
Speaker 4: is written especially for children at ages four to eight.
Speaker 4: It makes a perfect gift for the kids God is
Speaker 4: placed in your life today. When you support Daily Hope

Speaker 1: Once again, here's Pastor Rick.
Speaker 3: We need to learn how to live in God's family.
Speaker 3: That family is the Church of the Living God. The
Speaker 3: support and foundation of the truth. So anytime you talk
Speaker 3: about the church, you're talking about God's family. Any talking
Speaker 3: about the time you talk about God, you're talking about
Speaker 3: the church. There is no family of God outside of
Speaker 3: the Church.
Speaker 2: It is the same.
Speaker 3: So it's God's family on heaven and Earth. Number two,
Speaker 3: it's composed of saved and baptized believers. The church is
Speaker 3: composed of saved and baptized believers. Now, you might have
Speaker 3: your name on a role as a child in some church,
Speaker 3: but that doesn't make you a part of the church.
Speaker 3: It just means you're on somebody's role. You have to
Speaker 3: be saved and you have to be baptized to be
Speaker 3: a part of the Church of God. Let me just
Speaker 3: show you what Jesus said, Mark chapter sixteen, verse sixteen.
Speaker 3: Whoever believes in me Jesus said and is baptized will
Speaker 3: be saved. But whoever refuses to believe will be condemned.
Speaker 3: Now some people look at that and go, are you
Speaker 3: saying that I have to be baptized in order to
Speaker 3: be saved, that it's essential for salvation.
Speaker 2: No, I'm not.
Speaker 3: No water will save you. Only Jesus can say no
Speaker 3: water will save you. But if you really are saved,
Speaker 3: you want to be baptized. It's a contradiction to say, well,
Speaker 3: I'm a follower of Christ, but I don't do what
Speaker 3: he tells me to do. That's contradiction, so maybe you're
Speaker 3: not really saved. Baptism is what I call the wedding
Speaker 3: ring of the Christian life. This ring doesn't make me married.
Speaker 3: It was the commitment in my heart that made me
Speaker 3: married when.
Speaker 2: I said I do.
Speaker 3: This ring is the outward expression. It reminds me, oh,
Speaker 3: I made a vow in my heart. Baptism is the
Speaker 3: wedding ring of the Christian life. It doesn't make you
Speaker 3: a Christian. It shows that you are. And anybody who
Speaker 3: refuses to be baptized you had every reason of doubt
Speaker 3: they've had a commitment in their heart because the first
Speaker 3: thing Jesus said is be baptized as this outward symbol
Speaker 3: of your inward commitment. So it doesn't make you a Christian.
Speaker 3: But notice he says, anyone who believes and is baptized,
Speaker 3: which comes first believing or baptism believing? Right, you believe
Speaker 3: and then you're baptized. Now, if you were baptized before
Speaker 3: you were believed, before you believed, it didn't count. You
Speaker 3: don't get any blessing from that. You need to do
Speaker 3: it again because it means nothing. You just got wet. Okay,
Speaker 3: that's all.
Speaker 2: It means all.
Speaker 3: Baptism only matters if you believe. First, some of you
Speaker 3: don't even remember your baptism, So how could you possibly believe,
Speaker 3: because maybe you didn't even weren't even old enough.
Speaker 2: To know that.
Speaker 3: So you believe, Jesus said, and then you're baptized. Let
Speaker 3: me show you a couple of other verses. Acts chapter two,
Speaker 3: Verse thirty eight. This is the day of Pentecost. This
Speaker 3: is the day that Jesus began his church. And Peter
Speaker 3: preached this sermon. He said, this, repent and be baptized.
Speaker 3: This is the first day of the Church. In the
Speaker 3: name of Jesus Christ. For the forgiveness of your sin.
Speaker 3: Then God will give you His Holy Spirit.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 3: In Romans chapter eight, it says, if you don't have
Speaker 3: God's spirited.
Speaker 2: You you're not a Christian. You're not saved.
Speaker 3: Do not have God's spirit would mean you don't really
Speaker 3: know the Lord yet. So he says, whoever believes in
Speaker 3: meaning baptized, he'll be saved. And then Peter says repent
Speaker 3: and be baptized. Now in that verse, which one comes
Speaker 3: first repent or be baptized repent? Right, So if you
Speaker 3: were baptized before you repented, it didn't count. As I said,
Speaker 3: it was just a nice little ritual, but it meant nothing.
Speaker 3: You got no spiritual blessing out of it because you
Speaker 3: didn't even know what the meaning of baptism was. It
Speaker 3: comes after you believe, and it comes after you repent.
Speaker 3: Now here's what happens same day, Acts two, verse forty one.
Speaker 3: It says, then those who believed they believe first were
Speaker 3: then baptized see believe in counts the four baptized, and
Speaker 3: then they became part of the church. Baptism is the
Speaker 3: entry door to the church. About three thousand people that day.
Speaker 3: So baptism doesn't bless you if you did it out
Speaker 3: of order, and if you believed after you were baptized,
Speaker 3: you need to be baptized again, because it didn't mean anything.
Speaker 2: It didn't mean what the meaning of baptism is all about.
Speaker 2: All right.
Speaker 3: So it's God's family on earth. It's composed of saved
Speaker 3: and baptized believer it. The third part is this, it's
Speaker 3: people who are committed to Jesus and each other. To
Speaker 3: be a part of the church means I'm not just
Speaker 3: committed to Jesus, I'm committed to the other people in
Speaker 3: my church. Family of church means I am committed to
Speaker 3: Jesus and to each other. Now, let me show you
Speaker 3: a few verses about this. Second Corinthians, chapter eight, verse five. First,
Speaker 3: it says they gave themselves to the Lord, and then second,
Speaker 3: by God's will, they gave themselves to us as well.
Speaker 2: This is what we call the first base commitments saddleback.
Speaker 2: First you give yourself to the Lord.
Speaker 3: And then you give yourself to a group of other Christians.
Speaker 3: The first one makes you a Christian. The second one
Speaker 3: makes you a church member. Let me say it again. First,
Speaker 3: they gave themselves the Lord. That's how you get saved.
Speaker 3: You give your life to the Lord. And it says
Speaker 3: and then they gave themselves to us as well.
Speaker 2: That's what it means to be a church member.
Speaker 3: You become a Christian by giving your life to Christ.
Speaker 3: You become a church member by giving yourself to a
Speaker 3: group of other people. Say that's gonna be my spiritual home,
Speaker 3: that's gonna be my family, That's gonna be my spiritual
Speaker 3: base for my life while I'm here in this area. Whatever,
Speaker 3: it is a commitment not simply to Christ. It's a
Speaker 3: commitment to another group of other people. And we're gonna
Speaker 3: look at that today. Let me show you some other verses.
Speaker 3: Romans twelve, verse ten says you are to be devoted
Speaker 3: circle this to each other, not just to God.
Speaker 2: You are being devoted to each other.
Speaker 3: As brothers and sisters in God's loving family. That's what
Speaker 3: it means to be a church member. You're not just
Speaker 3: committed to Christ. You're committed to his family. You're committed
Speaker 3: to your brothers and sisters in that family. Romans chapter fourteen.
Speaker 3: Excuse me, Romans twelve, verse four and five. In Christ's body,
Speaker 3: each member belongs to who all the others.
Speaker 2: You realize this that in this church.
Speaker 3: Family, I belong to you, You belong to me. We
Speaker 3: belong to each other. That's what it means to be
Speaker 3: a member of a family. Now, notice it has the
Speaker 3: word member there. Sometimes you'll hear people say, I've actually
Speaker 3: heard preachers on the.
Speaker 2: Radio say this.
Speaker 3: Well, there's no such thing as church membership in the Bible.
Speaker 3: That's just nonsense. The word member came from the Bible.
Speaker 2: Act.
Speaker 3: There was no word members until it was in the Bible.
Speaker 3: The word member is used about one hundred times in
Speaker 3: the New Testament. The whole concept of membership was only
Speaker 3: about the church until other people picked it up and
Speaker 3: all of a sudden, you know, you know American express
Speaker 3: as membership has its privileges. No, so now you can
Speaker 3: be a member of my book club, you can be
Speaker 3: a member of my Facebook following, you can be a
Speaker 3: member of some the rotary club, you can be members.
Speaker 2: Of a million other things.
Speaker 3: But the word member came from the Bible, and it's
Speaker 3: talking about being a member of a local body of Christ.
Speaker 3: And it's used in a very different way. It's not
Speaker 3: talking about secret handshakes and funny hats and passwords and
Speaker 3: stuff like that. What is it talking about a member?
Speaker 3: We'll look on the screen first Corinthians twelve twelve to fourteen.
Speaker 3: Just as your body has many members, what are we
Speaker 3: talking about there? Your hand is a member of your body.
Speaker 3: Your ear is a member of your body. Your eye
Speaker 3: is a member of your body. Your nose, your spleen,
Speaker 3: your liver, these are all members of your body. Just
Speaker 3: as your body has many members. And each member of
Speaker 3: your body is unique. The liver doesn't do what the
Speaker 3: heart does. All your members together form your single body physically,
Speaker 3: So it is with Christ's body, he says. It's the
Speaker 3: exact same thing, physical parallel to a spiritual parallel. The
Speaker 3: Christ's body is the church, he said. All the members
Speaker 3: of the church make up the body of Christ. All right,
Speaker 3: So he's saying here that only as you're connected does
Speaker 3: it really really matter.
Speaker 2: And then he says the rest of it.
Speaker 3: He says this, for in one spirit, we were all
Speaker 3: baptized into one body. Regardless of our background, whether Jews
Speaker 3: are gentiles or slaves are free, we all receive God spirit.
Speaker 2: He says.
Speaker 3: It doesn't matter what your background is religious background, ethnic background,
Speaker 3: language background, racial back, None of that really matters, he says,
Speaker 3: regardless of your background, we all receive God's spirit. That's
Speaker 3: what puts us in the body. We're baptized into one body.
Speaker 3: So the body isn't made up of just one member,
Speaker 3: it's all the members connected together. And what is that saying.
Speaker 3: It's saying this. You are not the Church of God
Speaker 3: by yourself. You are not the Family of God by yourself.
Speaker 3: You're not the body of Christ by yourself only as
Speaker 3: we are connected together? Are we the family of God?
Speaker 3: Are we the Body of Christ? Are we God's Church?
Speaker 3: I'm not the church, you're not the church, but together
Speaker 3: we are the church. And he said it's in that connection.
Speaker 3: So only in connection to other members are you actually
Speaker 3: in God's family? Are not connected to other members? How
Speaker 3: are you and God's family? So what does that mean?
Speaker 2: Then?
Speaker 3: What does that mean the body to be a part
Speaker 3: of the body of Christ? Look at these verses on
Speaker 3: Corinthians twelve twenty five. The way God designed our bodies
Speaker 3: physical bodies is a model for understanding our lives together
Speaker 3: as a church, says, Okay, look at your body, and
Speaker 3: then you figure out how.
Speaker 2: The church operates.
Speaker 3: Every part is to be dependent on the other parts.
Speaker 3: I can't say that I don't need this part or
Speaker 3: I don't need that part. We all need each other
Speaker 3: and we are to be dependent on the other parts.
Speaker 3: It was his intention that we live our lives together.

Speaker 1: letter from one of our listeners.
Speaker 3: Hi, everybody, today, I want to share a very powerful
Speaker 3: letter from a listener named Michael. Michael experienced terrible trauma
Speaker 3: as a child, but he says that Daily Hope is
Speaker 3: helping him overcome his past and now he's looking to
Speaker 3: the future with his kids. Let me read you just
Speaker 3: a little bit of Michael's story. Dear Pastor Rick, you
Speaker 3: and Daily Hope have brought God into my life and
Speaker 3: it has saved me. I am a twenty nine old
Speaker 3: father of five children, and I try my hardest to
Speaker 3: teach my children to know God and to love Jesus
Speaker 3: and how to pray. And I do my best to
Speaker 3: be a good example and be worthy of all the
Speaker 3: good gifts that God.
Speaker 2: Has given to me.
Speaker 3: But you know, because of my childhood and the insecurities
Speaker 3: and abandonment issues that were created in my life from
Speaker 3: years of mental abuse, physical abuse, verbal abuse, and yes,
Speaker 3: even sexual abuse, I've always had a hard time trusting God.
Speaker 3: I woke up every day feeling unworthy, and I suffered
Speaker 3: from feelings of anxiety and depression, and I felt like
Speaker 3: God couldn't possibly love me because no one else had
Speaker 3: ever loved me. And I carried that pain inside of
Speaker 3: me for so long, craving for a close, better intimate
Speaker 3: relationship with God. Now listening to Daily Hope has helped
Speaker 3: me achieve.
Speaker 2: That and more.
Speaker 3: I'm not only better, but I'm now better for everybody
Speaker 3: else around me. Spreading all that I've learned and the
Speaker 3: good news of Jesus Christ. I know God better than
Speaker 3: ever and I now have more faith than I ever
Speaker 3: knew possible because I feel His love.
Speaker 2: Thank you so much.
Speaker 3: Daily Hope does such a great work in the name
Speaker 3: of Jesus, and I will forever be in your debt
Speaker 3: for bringing the fire of faith into my heart and
Speaker 3: helping me know God. I love you, and I hope
Speaker 3: you continue to bring change in the world through the
Speaker 3: message of Jesus Christ. You know, Michael, I absolutely love
Speaker 3: how you're teaching your five kids to know Jesus that
Speaker 3: is a real man, a real dad, a real father.
Speaker 3: It's so important to pass it on to the next generation.
Speaker 3: And I'm encouraged that Daily Hope is helping you with
Speaker 3: the trauma of all your past and helping you work
Speaker 3: through those issues and keeping you growing in the love
Speaker 3: of Jesus Christ. You know, stories like the one you
Speaker 3: wrote to me are what keeps me going. It's why
Speaker 3: we do this change lives now. I want to pray
Speaker 3: for you. I want to pray, Dear Lord, pour out
Speaker 3: your love on Michael. Help him to sense your love
Speaker 3: so they never doubts it. Pour out your blessing and
Speaker 3: your peace on his family. I pray that they will
Speaker 3: continue to grow in their faith and that they will
Speaker 3: experience the peace that passes understanding as they follow you God.
Speaker 3: I want to thank you for his faithfulness in Jesus name.
Speaker 2: I pray Amen.
