“In the
exercise of the authority which has been entrusted to Him, the Lord Jesus [the Son] calls
to Himself from out of the world, through the ministry of His Word, by His
Spirit, those who are given to Him by His Father, so that they may walk before Him
in all the ways of obedience which He prescribes to them in His Word. Those who
are thus called, He commands to walk together in particular societies or
churches, for their mutual edification, and for the due performance of that
public worship, which He requires of them in the world” (1689 Baptist
Confession of Faith, 26.5).
