Christ has authorized the congregation and its leaders to act with authority in our lives. That's not a popular idea among Westerners, but this is the skeleton which keeps the body, otherwise healthy, from slouching to the floor. It's the bowl which keeps the soup from spilling everywhere. Looking across the evangelical landscape, do you know what I see? A lot of splattered soup. Oh, it's tasty soup, but it has nothing to contain it and the dogs have been licking it up for years. One illustration of this: con-sider the stereotypical evangelical youth group. You get gospel teaching. Sometimes gospel worldview formation. Sincere professions. And heart-felt worship. But there's little formal account-ability, structure, and discipline because the group is not a part of the church. Result: the kids go to college and the majority abandon the faith or at least live like they have. You can see the splatter. The real problem is, how many churches operate this way. That brings us to this episode of the 9Marks' "Polity is Kool Show." Today we turn to the theme of church membership.
