Does the church belong to God or people? Is it my church or His?

Jesus said: “I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it … I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven” (Matthew 16:18-19).

The Bible calls it the church of God and the church of Christ. As long as it is governed and guided by God’s word, it remains His church. As soon as people assume control and determine doctrine, morals, faith and practice, it ceases to be God’s church. Christ is head over all things to the church (Ephesians 1:22-23).  It is, truly HIS church.
