Many times, "the kingdom" and "the church" are used synonymously when they are distinct in Scripture. This foundational lesson will differentiate between the two while seeing how they are closely related. A church without an understanding of the Kingdom of Heaven is a church who will struggle to find its own identity and purpose. Although the church is not synonymous with the Kingdom, the church is foundational to kingdom building. BCF is committed to be the New Testament church that Christ intended, useful for building His Kingdom in the Bergheim area for generations to come.
