Question

Does being a loyal church member make someone a believer?

Answer

Now, there’s many has a profession that they believe, and today in my church, as in most all of our churches, we class a believer as one who is loyal to the church, and comes to church regular, and takes a—a place, a position in the church, and helps the church in its financial needs. But that’s very contrary to what Jesus said. Jesus didn’t say, “These signs will follow them: they’ll take their place in church, and they’ll be loyal members,” and so forth. He never said that. But here’s His last statement to the Church. Listen. “These signs shall follow them that believe: in My Name they shall cast out devils, speak with new tongues, or take up serpents, drink deadly things it’ll not harm them. If they lay their hands on the sick, they shall recover.”
