What is a church?

When you accept God’s grace you are reconciled with God. Then you are His child. You are becoming His devotee. Collection of all devotees in the world is called Church, It is a universal and a mysterious one. The local gathering of his devotees may have some building and it is secondary. In the early days and even today many gathers in some homes in a simple way. The real meaning of church is the collection of all devotees in the world and it is depicted as the bride of Jesus Christ. The thief who repented on the cross also became the member of this church. So anyone who accepts God’s grace is a part of God’s devotees or Church. The names and divisions of the Church are meaningless and misleading. That is why I had mentioned earlier, do not bother about Churchianity.
