Restoring the New Testament Church

In Unity

Jesus gave his life as a Sacrifice for sin that mankind could be restored to a right relationship with God our Father. There exists no example in scripture of a loving Father who either encouraged or condoned his children to fight and criticize and ignore one another.

The idea that a God who is perfect in nature and character would be so feeble as to plan for His only Son to become the head of a broken, twisted, and palsied body that could not or would not cooperate and love one another is simply demonic in origin.

The scriptures plainly teach in I Corinthians 12:12-13:13 and in John 17 that God's plan was for one body, one church. This in no way implies that all churches should be clones. Many of us have earthly brothers who are not our twins. We do not reject or condemn one another for it, but are able to work together in unity for common goals.

We believe that the body of Christ is varied and beautiful in gifting and in ministries. We also reject the fleshly notion that the name on a door can determine ones standing before God. Jesus spoke the standard in simple honest truth when he said; "You shall know them by their fruit." [Matt. ] "The world will know that you are my disciples if you love one another.' [John 13:34-35].

The scriptures plainly teach in I Corinthians 12:12-13:13 and in John 17 that God's plan was for one body, one church. This in no way implies that all churches should be clones. Many of us have earthly brothers who are not our twins. We do not reject or condemn one another for it, but are able to work together in unity for common goals. True biblical doctrine does not divide, however, spiritual and intellectual pride always will.

Have our denominational ties fostered this love?

"Has the wedge between us borne this fruit?"

The Word of God declares that there is a more excellent way.
