The Greek word is ekklesia, the “called-out ones.” In English, the word is “church,” and if you believe in Jesus, you are “called-out.” You are called out to live separately from the values of our culture. That is tough to do, but when we forge links of fellowship and support in a local assembly, it becomes a lot easier. That is why God says, “Don’t forsake assembling together.”
