Making Sunday School Cool Again
Psalm 100

Make a joyful noise to the LORD, all the earth! Serve the LORD with gladness! Come into his presence with singing! Know that the LORD, he is God! It is he whomade us, and we are his; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise! Give thanks to him; bless his name! For the LORD is good; his steadfast love endures forever, and his faithfulness to all generations.

Becoming a Member

At RMLBC, we take the privilege of church membership seriously. Granting church membership is one way our local body recognizes that a person is a true believer. Of course, we cannot know a person's heart the way God does, nor do we claim to, but we can see the outward fruit of a person's life, and we can hear their testimony of trusting Christ as their Savior. It is the desire of our church that only regenerate Christians be granted membership rights.

Presenting yourself as a candidate for membership is your first step to integrating with our family of faith. If you are interested in becoming a member, please discuss your interest with Pastor Jason. He will clarify our requirements for membership, which are as follows:

  • Members must be professing Christians who understand the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
  • Members must be baptized.
  • Members must agree to our statement of faith.
  • Members must agree to act in accordance with the general principles of holy conduct as stated in Scripture.

Membership may also be suspended or revoked if any of these requirements fail to be met. Keep in mind, church membership is a covenant with the other believers in the local body. It goes beyond our salvation (even though that is required), and into the realm of God's earthly organization, his Church, where order must be maintained, and holiness must be corporately sought.

Care will also be taken to evaluate your spiritual gifts in order to see what ministries of the church the Lord may be calling you to.

1 Corinthians 12:12-18 For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ. For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body- Jews or Greeks, slaves or free- and all were made to drink of one Spirit. For the body does not consist of one member but of many. If the foot should say, "Because I am not a hand, I do not belong to the body," that would not make it any less a part of the body. And if the ear should say, "Because I am not an eye, I do not belong to the body," that would not make it any less a part of the body. If the whole body were an eye, where would be the sense of hearing? If the whole body were an ear, where would be the sense of smell? But as it is, God arranged the members in the body, each one of them, as he chose.
