QUESTION: Does the church save?
ANSWER: The saved are added by the Lord to the church (Acts 2:47). After
having been added to the church, the saved in the church then go into all the
world preaching the gospel so that others can be saved (Mark 16:15-16). Paul
says that the church makes known the manifold wisdom of God (Ephesians
3:10). By preaching the gospel then, the church makes known the wisdom of
God unto salvation. In this secondary and indirect sense it can be said that the
church saves, but it must be realized that there is no direct authority in the
church. All authority resides solely in the word of God! Some in the
denominational world, such as the Catholic Church, teach that saving authority
resides in the church and not the Word of God! Faithful Christians will reject any
such notion!
