If it were God's desire to gather a body of believers together in the form of a local church, where might God have the focus? It might be good to focus on the poor. God tells us to care for those less fortunate. It might be good to focus on the widowed, they also are less fortunate. It might be good to focus on deep Bible study. God wants us to gain wisdom, It might be good to focus on prayer. God tells us to pray. There are an unlimited number of good causes to focus on. But where does God want us to focus?
"While he(Peter) was going on like this, babbling, a light-radiant cloud enveloped them, and sounding from deep in the cloud a voice: "This is my Son, marked by my love, focus of my delight. Listen to him." ~Jesus
The cool thing about a focus on Jesus is that obedience in all the other activities become a natural result. Focus on Jesus and you will feed the poor, help the widows, read His Word, pray and more!
