Do you know what is the City Church? Do you understand the City Church? Do you have a vision of the City Church? Can you see the City Church in the end times? Can you see the city church in your city? Many believers do not know what the city church is, and the body of Christ in your city is the city church! –(Acts, Rev. 1-4)

Every believer who is born again is a member of the Body of Christ, which is the church around the world, The body of Christ on the global level is the global church, the body of Christ in your nation is the national church, the body of Christ in your region is the regional church, and the body of Christ in your city is the city church. –(Eph. 4:4-6)

This is spiritual in each heart of the believer, and this is real around us through teaching, revelation, and application of city church government in our cities. The Lord has shown me over these years a prophetic vision of the city church now, in the future and in the end times. –(Prov. 29:18)

The Seven Comings of the Emerging City Church around the world in every city of every nation. –(Amos 3:7-8, Rev. 2:29)

1. Apostolic Unity: the city church will go from pastoral unity to apostolic unity.
2. Arising Apostolic City Church networking among the many city churches in many cities around the world.
3. The arising ministry of the apostolic city church. The apostolic city church will have there own ministry ministering to the city.
4. The arising apostolic city church will send out missionaries to other cities, nations and to other city churches in other cities.
5. Arising apostolic national church will arise.
6. Arising apostolic global church will arise.
7. The birthing of the fullness of the city church.

Jesus the Head of the Church and the Chief Apostle said He would build the church around the world, the church in every nation, and the church in every city. It is Jesus who will build the city church. Jesus will use His apostles to build with grace and revelation the city church, and the foundation of the city church is apostles and prophets with Jesus being the Chief Cornerstone. –(Eph. 2:19-22)

The Next level of City Church is apostolic unity; the Lord will rise up city church apostles, and among them there are set visionaries that will lead, and the Lord will raise up apostles and prophets in every city around the world. There will form an apostolic alliance among apostles of a city, they will form an apostolic city church horizontal network, and build an apostolic city church center. –(Isa. 60)

The Future of the City Church will network horizontal within a city, then network horizontal with other city church networks. The ministry of the city church will be the ministries that are called to minister to the whole city and city church, and the city church will begin to send out missionaries around the world, there will come the arising horizontal networking of the national church, and then there will come the arising horizontal network of the global church, and then the time will come for the birthing of the fullness of the city church. The mature city church will be out our minds; it is the end time church. The local congregations will outlive their purpose and be replaced with the mature city church, and those buildings will be places where the city church meets and fellowships. The center leadership of the mature city church will be the apostles, and the pastors will minister in small groups among the fellowship of a city church. –(Eph. 4:13, 5:27)
