401: Evangelistic, Small-group Home Bible Studies
If no visitors show up, the class is canceled for that evening; and the time is spent in talking about each member's contacts and praying. Click to View Virtues of Home Studies Home studies provide a neutral atmosphere in which to learn the Bible and accomplish two things.

This is very important because statistics prove that new Christians have a great potential for influencing others to come to Christ even though they are the least equipped to actually teach. Another plus: If a non-Christian has attended a group study and is eventually baptized, he has already ... In fact, the entire study is a whole series of leading questions that relate to the topic. The kind of questions asked in the study are not, What must I do to be saved, but rather, Do I need to be saved? Composing a group study outline is often harder than preparing a sermon outline. The questions ... ...

403: Church Creeds: The fuel of religious division
The word creed is derived from the Latin credo meaning I believe. In a sense, what one believes is his creed. However, the term has come to designate the authoritative statement of the teachings of a religious body. It is not merely ones personal convictions, but represents the official position of the church to which a member must subscribe if one is to remain in the good graces of that body. Most of us can agree with the truths expressed in the Apostles Creed. Some may wonder how anyone could legitimately object to it as a confession of the church. The problem is not that the Apostles Creed is erroneous, but that it is a human expression placed on par with the divine revelation of the Bible. Human writings are not wrong because they are ... If two people accept contradictory confessions, there is no way that they can get together unless one or both abandon their creed. For example, if one, creed teaches that a man is saved by works and another affirms that he is saved by faith, the ... ...

405: Sola Scriptura: Scripture tells us John wrote the fourth Gospel ...
Hebrews, for example was universally ascribed to Paul in the east (orthodox church), while the west (Roman Catholic) put forth several other possible writers. This actually proves the failure of oral tradition, because there was plenty of oral tradition about who wrote Hebrews, but none of it helped answer the question. The Orthodox relies on its tradition and the Catholic relies on its own tradition and they never have agreed. Actually, the earliest tradition clearly states that Paul wrote the book of Hebrews. For the Roman Catholic church to not accept this universal and earliest tradition, only points out the fact that they really don't truly believe in oral ... B.

412: Sola Scriptura and the Apostolic Fathers: 405 AD: John Chrysostom
... While we would strongly disagree with Chrysostom on this point, we honestly admit that he seems to take such a view. After all, we know there was a gradual movement to emphasize church tradition over what the Bible says, and Chrysostom at 400 AD, may be indicative that things are changing in that direction. But in light of what Chrysostom has already said about the scriptures, we could only guess that the specific things that make up this "unwritten tradition" are insignificant and of a secondary importance. Like modern Catholics, Chrysostom merely makes the claim of "unwritten tradition" without ever really giving us a specific example. Provide us a specific list! Without such an example, we object that modern Catholics squeeze in all their extra-biblical doctrines. Jerome, who also lived at the same time as Chrysostom in 400 AD, does provide such a list in (Jerome, Dialogue Against the Luciferians, 8), like drinking "milk and honey" immediately after being baptized. So we can in fact ... ...

This fact incites those who believe it to live virtuously and to shun sin. They acknowledge that the things worthy of praise and blame are within our own power. ... It is our responsibility to live righteously. God asks this of us, not as though it were ... ways."
