The church is made up of Christians, but a group of Christians don’t make it a Church (1 Cor 12:18, 24)
25 Brethren, pray for us. 26 Greet all the brethren with an holy kiss. 27 I charge you by the Lord that this epistle be read unto all the holy brethren. 28 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.
There is a uniqueness to the body of Christ
I. You are asked to pray – especially for the ministers (v. 25)
Key verses: 2 Thess 3:1; 2 Cor 1:11
