CONCLUSION
●OUR ENRICHMENT AND LACKING NOTHING IS THE
CHURCH AS A WHOLE AND NOT INDIVIDUALLY,
THEREFORE, WE MUST UNITE AND WORK TOGETHER
USING INDIVIDUAL'S GIFT/S, CALLING AND MISSION IN
LIFE. AS GOD'S CHILDREN, WE MUST GIVE
IMPORTANCE TO OUR ENRICHMENT REMEMBERING
THE SACRIFICE OF OUR LORD AND SAVIOUR, THAT
ALTHOUGH HE WAS RICH, HE BECAME POOR SO THAT
IN HIS POVERTY WE WILL BECOME RICH
2Corinthians 8:9 For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus
Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sake He became
poor, so that you through His poverty might become rich.

WE MUST BE CONFIDENT THAT OUR GOD WHOM WE SERVED CAN BE
DEPENDED UPON. HE CANNOT DENY HIMSELF. WE AS HIS CHURCH IS
HIS RESPONSIBILITY AND HE WILL COMPLETE WHAT HE HAS BEGUN IN
HIS CHURCH ( IN US) UNTIL THE END.
