  1. church member

    Church membership, in Christianity, is the state of belonging to a local church congregation, which in most cases, simultaneously makes one a member of a Christian denomination and the universal Christian Church. Christian theologians have taught that church membership is commanded in the Bible. The process of becoming a church member varies based on the Christian denomination. Those preparing to become full members of a church are known variously as catechumens, candidates or probationers depending on the Christian denomination and the sacramental status of the individual.

Examples of church member in a Sentence

  1. Russell Moore:

    Several years ago when I would raise this issue there was a sense of invulnerability, a church member might say that clergy abuse is a Catholic Church problem, or that it never happens in The Catholic Church. I very rarely hear that now.

  2. Greg Murphy:

    We have to keep talking about this because the administration's not, and this is something that I care about dearly about — not only because I'm a professional [but] because I'm a father, I'm a neighbor, I'm a church member that knows families who have been decimated because of the loss of a loved one. And we're not going to stop talking about it.

  3. Christen Kuikoua:

    What is philosophy? A Church member ask me. And I responded, Philosophy is the pursuit of wisdom and understanding, a journey of questioning and seeking truth. It is the boldness to explore the unknown, knowing you cannot fully comprehend or traverse the entire expanse of existence. Yet, when God calls, you step forward in faith, embracing the mystery and trusting in the divine guidance beyond the limits of human reason.

  4. R. C. SPROUL (1939- ):

    For a Christian to be a Christian, he must first be a sinner. Being a sinner is a prerequisite for being a church member. The Christian church is one of the few organizations in the world that requires a public acknowledgement of sin as a condition for membership.
