    Where was the Church before it was restored?

    The point is this: the assumption of restoration does not necessarily imply non existence of that which needs to be restored as the question seems to imply. We recognize that restoration means that that which needs to be restored has deteriorated badly. In what sense? In the sense that not very much of the original is left. But that means that SOME of the original is still there. How can it be restored? By following the pattern for the original. In the case of the church, where do we find that pattern? In the New Testament.

  • faith

    Does God Give Us Faith Directly?

    God has supplied for us His word with all the things in it that we need to believe and know saving truth.  When we know and believe these God-given truths, then we have faith in our life.  So, we develop our own personal faith from hearing God's word, understanding it, believing it, and applying it.  In that way, God is responsible for our faith because it is only through his word that we can have that faith; at the same time, we are responsible for accepting God's message and believing it.

    What is Christian Baptism?

    In this lesson we want to look at the question, “What is Christian Baptism?” We will note that Christian baptism is: 1) A burial in water. 2) An action of faith. 3) God’s work of righteousness. Everyone needs to be able to discuss what baptism is in relationship to the plan of salvation. Not many in the religious world today understand it. But it is part of the great commission and we must preach and teach it.

Each listener should take comfort in knowing that God hears, sees, and provides when His people are persecuted.
