LIAMSON.....I too am a member of the coC. I want to try to reason with you from a common sence approach.
Do you believe The word of God when he said its the SEED? It will always be here. Its our blue print. Do you believe the RCC(roman catholic church) started just as they are today? Christ said he would build his church. Paul, Barnabus, Peter, Lidya, they were members of the church, RIGHT? The day of Penticost were added 3000 souls, then there were 5000 added, then Multitude's, do you think that was the end of the church? I don't. The Bible speaks of the dark ages. It also talks about forbidding to marry and not eating meats, correct? The seed was still around somewhere. These men simply saw where the need to do things bible ways, not adding to are taking away. If the church was buillt on the same princples as the congeration that Peter and Paul Worshiped at would it not be the same church?
If every congeration of the church of Christ just left the earth. In 3000 they found some writtings and they worshiped like we do now would they not be the church of Christ?
I hope and Pray you can see from my terriable writting what I am trying to explain to you.
I would like to say. We have been blessed to understand a simple plan. Where we in the church will miss the boat is not getting our message out. We have a huge responsibality to teach all nations. I pray you will be a part of that. We need people like you.
I have not said anything about doctrine of the Lords church. I just want you see there is the Lords church.
There are some good minds here, educated people, I am not. I got 5 years of High School. Equal to a 1 grader. My wife is a 2nd. grd. teacher and brought me home some 1 grd. work and I couldn't do it. So be nice to me!
