Terry Virgo on Defining the Church

"The Church is breathtakingly wonderful. It is a new community such as has never before existed on the earth made up of Jew and Gentile, male and female, Greek and Jew, slave and free, knit together in love, full of the Presence of the Holy Spirit - a new creation in the earth. That, Paul preaches, is what the Church of God is".
