The Church is the called-out body of believers who live according to the doctrine and teachings of JESUS CHRIST. Erroneously, people refer to 'the church' as a physical building. Before JESUS ascended to the FATHER, He promised to establish His Kingdom on earth (Matthew 16:18-19). Not only did JESUS conquer death, hell, and the grave, He also created an avenue by which He could fellowship with those who would be blessed to enter His kingdom. On the Day of Pentecost, Jesus fulfilled that promise (Acts 2:1-47). After hearing Peter's gospel sermon, about 3,000 people were added to The Church JESUS established. Those believers who obeyed the gospel that day became its first members. The Church was also known as the Bride of Christ (Ephesians 5:23-27). CHRIST'S Church was and still is His first and only wife.
