So when he had received food, he was strengthened. Then Saul spent some days with the disciples at Damascus.
Acts 9:19
The “me and Jesus” religion is not biblical Christianity. Of course each Christian comes to faith individually, but once we are saved, we are members of the body of Christ. As soon as Saul was saved, he spent time with other disciples at Damascus (where he was saved).
Damascus was not Saul’s home, so he did not remain there as a member of the church in Damasucs. When he settled in Antioch, he was a member of the church there (Acts 13:1). He served in that church (Acts 13:1). He was sent out as a missionary from that church (Acts 13:2). And he remained accountable to that church even as a missionary (Acts 14:26-28).
Let every believer be connected with, a member of, serve in, and be accountable to a local church. It’s in the Bible!
A Footnote: If Grace Bible is your church, are you a serving member? If so, great! If not, let’s get together to explore membership and service.
