Luke 24:35-48 Is community part of our journey to salvation?

where Jesus promises, “When two or more are gathered in my name I am there”.  I am beginning to realize that being in a community can help mature our faith.  I know that living community is not always easy.  It was no different in the early church; as we read in the Acts of the Apostles and the letters from Paul to the early Christian communities, many instances where he is admonishing them for their divisions and judgmental attitudes.  I am left wondering if by dealing with these differences ... our faith matures.

Send us a Text Message.There are many stories in which Jesus is revealed to people in various communities.  I am proposing that the aspect community in our faith may be more important than we realize.  I want to draw your attention to Matthew 18:20 where Jesus promises, “When two or more are gathered in my name I am there”.  I am beginning to realize that being in a community can help mature our faith.  I know that living community is not always easy.  It was no different in the early church; as we read in the Acts of the Apostles and the letters from Paul to the early Christian communities, many instances where he is admonishing them for their divisions and judgmental attitudes.  I am left wondering if by dealing with these differences ... our faith matures.
