The New Testament has a lot more to say about the kind of community the church ought to be before the world than it has to say about its mission to the world. However, Jesus made it abundantly plain that the reason he wanted his people to develop true community was "so that the world may believe" (John 17:21). This is his ultimate goal, and this is our goal. There is no doubt that it is when the church most clearly lives out the gospel in the relationship of its members, it becomes the most powerful force for attracting non-members. It was so in the early church in Jerusalem. Take, for example, the following passages in Acts: " They all joined together constantly in prayer..." (1:14). " ...they were all together in one place" (2:1). " Every day they continued to meet together...They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favour of all the people" (2:46, 47)." ...they raised their voices together in prayer to God" (4:24). "All the believers were one in heart and mind" (4:32). " And all the believers used to meet together..." (5:12). It is no wonder that "the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved" (Acts 2:47). On this sets of beliefs the True Christian Bible Church sets its Church planting mission unto every part of the world.
