Jesus promised to build his church, and he has not failed to keep that promise.
The apostles performed many signs and wonders among the people. And all the believers used to meet together in Solomon’s Colonnade. No one else dared join them, even though they were highly regarded by the people. Nevertheless, more and more men and women believed in the Lord and were added to their number. As a result, people brought the sick into the streets and laid them on beds and mats so that at least Peter’s shadow might fall on some of them as he passed by. Crowds gathered also from the towns around Jerusalem, bringing their sick and those tormented by impure spirits, and all of them were healed.
Acts 5:12-16
There is a strange dynamic in this passage. The believers are meeting together, and as others looked on they where afraid. Yet they are drawn to this people. They long to be part of the church, and to see God's power at work in their lives.
So they too believe and join the church - God is growing his church.
He never, ever fails to keep that promise. Even today - he hasn't forgotten, nor is he powerless to act. He will, he is, building his church.
