As God’s presence filled the old testament tabernacle, and His glory filled the
temple (Exodus 40:35) at the time of its dedication (2 Chronicles 5:11-14), so
did the Holy Spirit dedicate His church on the day of Pentecost. Acts 2:41-47
Scriptural facts; prove the New Testament Church is the church of God.
It was build by Jesus Matthew 16:18
It was a more perfect tabernacle. Hebrews 9:11
It is not a temporal, but a spiritual house. 1 Peter 2:5
The foundation and material of this house are described in the word of God Eph
2:20-22; Hebrews 12:22,23
As Jesus predicted the Old Temple was destroyed. Matthew 23:38; 24:2; 27;51
The New Testament Sanctuary was dedicated on the day of Pentecost Acts 2:2
The Church began to immediately grow
Christ is the head of the church having purchased it with His blood. Acts 20:28
The church is the body of Christ, and he is the head. Ephesians 1:22,23
Being the head, Christ governs his church. Isaiah 9:6,7
There is no room, nor need for rabbi’s, popes, fathers, lordships, reverends, or
district superintendents in his church. Matthew 23:8-11; Mark 10:42-45
Since the builder and head of the church is in heaven it stands to reason that
the headquarters are also in heaven
