What is
the church?
God chooses and preserves for himself a
community elected for eternal life and united by faith, who
love, follow, learn from, and worship God together. God sends out this
community to proclaim the gospel and prefigure Christ's kingdom by the quality
of their life together and their love for one another.
2 TESALONAIKA 2:13
Ka ko kimautolu,
ko ‘emau ngāue ke fai, ko e fakafeta‘i ma‘u ai pē ki he ‘Otua koe‘uhi ko
kimoutolu, si‘i kāinga ‘ofeina ‘e he ‘Eiki, koe‘uhi ko e fili kimoutolu ‘e he
‘Otua mei he kamata‘anga, ke mou ma‘u ‘a e fakamo‘ui, ‘i he fakamā‘oni‘oni‘i
kimoutolu ‘e he Laumālie, pea ‘i ho‘omou tui ki he mo‘oni.

THESSALONIANS 2:13
But we ought always to give thanks to God
for you, brothers beloved by the Lord, because God chose you as the firstfruits
to be saved, through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth.
