The Church as a Sacrament

King of Peace on Christmas Eve

It turns out that I view the church as a Sacrament—an outward visible sign of God's inward grace. Sounds like a fair assessment to me:

You scored as Sacrament model. Your model of the church is Sacrament. The church is the effective sign of the revelation that is the person of Jesus Christ. Christians are transformed by Christ and then become a beacon of Christ wherever they go. This model has a remarkable capacity for integrating other models of the church.
