Our Message to Christians and the Church
You would think that the Bible’s instructions for biblical relationship and the things Christians are to do together are only that. But they are much more. They are (1) the way we become more like Jesus, (2) the way to greatly multiply our worship and bring God much more praise, and (3) the way we prepare for heaven.

The relationships between Christians as commanded in the Bible are the gateway to some of the most important aspects of our faith.
But, individualized faith has made the relationships of God's people too weak to create the vital, living organism the church is meant to be.
God designed humans to be dependent on Him and also upon one another. But, Satan offered independence and individualized choice. Unfortunately, Adam and Eve did not work together (help each other) and brought sin to the whole human race. The result today is that believers have lost the vision of what Christians together can accomplish. Surprisingly, our need for each other's help is so ignored that we might wonder if Genesis 2:18 was removed from our Bibles (where God said that Adam needed a helper).
This individualized Christianity (an oxymoron) can be reversed by teaching individuals the Togethers of Scripture. These are categorizations of hundreds of Bible verses that instruct godly interdependence. Those individuals can then apply the love of the Togethers to their friendships, marriages and families. The resultant power of this deeper love will create the church that we have always dreamed of and God has always wanted.

Ever increasing practice of the Togethers of Scripture will (1) create in you the loving essence of Jesus, (2) give Jesus the kind of love He requested, (3) provide you with the most significant spiritual lifestyle which is attainable only through Christian community, (4) offer significant worship to God by reflecting his own character back to him through your behavior, and (5) bring God’s kingdom to earth as asked for in the Lord’s Prayer. And for heaven, such growing obedience to Scripture now will later (6) qualify you for a more responsible place of service as reward in heaven, and, (7) most important of all, give you greater empathy with God for a closer relationship with Him for all of eternity.

The Purpose of the Lamb's Bride Project
|
Individualized Christianity is crippling the church and, therefore, must be destroyed for the church to be obedient to Scripture. It is this task that consumes the Lamb’s Bride Project which wants to (1) expose the dangers of individualized and autonomous Christian life, (2) highlight God’s command to love one another in the superior way that Jesus loved his disciples, (3) show how to do this through the categorization of the 65 Togethers of Scripture, and (4) teach a way of leadership in the church that more closely follows the method of Jesus and empowers more church members.
