The Lord built only one kind of church
He called it "my church"
He founded it, organized it, gave it commands
He made ordinances for it to follow
He pronounced teachings for it to propagate
He gave the Holy Spirit to remain
Indwell it and Empower it
He gave it apostles, prophets, teachers
He gave it the complete scriptures
By His command His church sends forth preachers
By His command the lost, prepared by God, are saved
And in that locality, a body of Christ is formed
the same as the one formed by Christ
Like begets like
Same faith and practice
And the Lord does the same thing over again
