People who form a church have all kinds of ideas about what it should be like. People looking for a church have all kinds of ideas about what it should be like. But the only thing that matters is what Jesus says a church should be like. And thankfully, Jesus never shied away from describing and demonstrating the kind of church he wants. This week we see that the kind of church Jesus wants is extending to all. Though the gospel of Jesus came first to the Jewish people, God’s intent all along was that it would extend from that one nation to all nations. Through the spread of that gospel, God has brought near those who once were far from him and has made them members of his family. In the same way, Jesus wants to use us to extend his grace to everyone.
