Col 1:24 I now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up in my flesh what is lacking in the afflictions of Christ, for the sake of His body, which is the church,

If you feel that the Church has failed in its purpose today what can be done to revitalize its purpose?

AnswerUltimately the purpose of Christianity is to have all people worship God through Jesus. Everything else, arguably, is a secondary issue. And the Church has failed to achieve in its purpose, first because of the move away from Christianity in its traditional Western base, and secondly in its limited success in winning converts in Asia. Presumably the purpose of Christian churches will not change or be revitalised. But I am confident that their purpose could be realised rapidly and with almost complete success if the Churches were able to do just one thing. Prove, beyond doubt, the existence of God.
