401: Biblical Subordination of God the Son, to God the Father
... He has sent Me to proclaim release to the captives, And recovery of sight to the blind, To set free those who are downtrodden" Matthew 20:23 "He *said to them, "My cup you shall drink; but to sit on My right and on My left, this is not Mine to give, but it is for those for whom it has been prepared by My Father."" 4: Jn 20:17 The subordination of Christ to the Father after resurrection before ascension: (cross to ascension) John 20:17 "Jesus *said to her, "Stop clinging to Me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to My brethren, and say to them, 'I ascend to My Father and your Father, and My God and your God.'" 5: 1 Cor 11:3 The subordination of Christ to the Father now: (ascension to present) "But I want you to know that the head of every man is Christ, the head of woman is man, and the head of Christ is God." 1 Cor 11:3 2 Cor 1:3 "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ" Acts 4:27,30 "For truly in this city there were gathered together against Thy holy ... ...

402: What International churches of Christ believe/Kip McKean
Excerpted from the Official, World Headquarters, Creed of: International churches of Christ ICOC (Crossroads, Boston, Kip McKean, Discipling Movement) NOTE: This website is not affiliated with the ICOC and is presenting their beliefs for reference only. "We Believe That: Jesus, the Son of God, is our one and only Lord and Savior, crucified for our sins and physically resurrected from the dead on the third day. The Bible is the only inspired and inerrant message of God. One is saved by the grace of God and the blood of Jesus Christ; and a person must, through faith and obedience, reach out to receive this free gift of salvation. Only baptized disciples are members of Christ's church. After baptism every new Christian needs to be taught or "discipled" by older, more experienced Christians to obey all of Jesus' teachings (Matthew 28:20). Every disciple must be committed to the vision of building churches of disciples -- true churches of Christ -- in every nation on earth." Click Your ... ...

403: Can A Christian Sin And Be Lost?
Can A Christian Sin And Be Lost? Several of the world's denominations teach that Christians cannot sin so as to become lost; that is, there is no way that a true convert of Christ he cannot go to hell may sin, and thereby, receive eternal damnation - he cannot go to hell after having once been saved. This is popularly spoken of as the doctrine of "once saved, always saved". On one extreme, this doctrine is expressed as, "True Christians will not sin as they lack the desire and the ... The most clear treatment of this subject in the New Testament is found in the second chapter of II Peter. Study this entire chapter carefully. I quote now verses 20 and 21, which best summarize its teachings, "For if after they have escaped the pollution of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, ... ...

404: Almost Persuaded, to be Christian, but now it is too late!!!
The confusion of our time over the meaning, requirements, and rewards of being a Christian can only be overcome by a return to the New Testament pattern. Christianity as intended by God is not a matter of satisfying ourselves, or merely being religious, but rather of satisfying God's will through Jesus Christ. To be a Christian means to become like Christ in our surrender to the will of God. Let's look at the example of a man in the Bible, Agrippa, by name, who was almost persuaded to be a Christian. His ... The record in Acts Chapter 22, verse 16, tells us that after Paul had been convinced by the vision that Jesus was alive and must be the Son of God, he was given this command: "And now why tarriest thou? Arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord". To be a Christian requires us to do anything God says, just as Jesus did while he was on the earth. Paul says it this way in Phillipians Chapter 2, verses 5-8: "Let this mind be in you, which was also in ... ...

406: Hastings, James: Encyclopedia of Religion and Ethics
... Dreienigkeit) Adopted as the designation of the essential Trinity (or the doctrine of the tri-personal nature of God). (Encyclopædia of Religion and Ethics, James Hastings, Trinity, p 461) It should be observed that there is no real cleavage or antithesis between the doctrines of the economic and the essential Trinity, and naturally so. The Triunity represents the effort to think out the Trinity, and so to afford it a reasonable basis. The first Christians had with St. Paul a saving experience of the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and of the love of God, and of the communion of the Holy Ghost; and the theologians of the ancient Church sought to set forth the Christian experience in logical terms of reason. In the effort they were led, inevitably, to effect an alliance between the gospel of their salvation and the speculative philosophy, and more especially the Platonism, in which they had been trained, while, in making room for the Christian gospel within the world-not altogether ... ...

411: What The Death Of Christ Accomplished!
What The Death Of Christ Accomplished! The reasons behind why Jesus died are a combination of God's plan and man's foolish sin in killing an innocent man. The foremost reason is the love of God, Rom 8:5; 1 Jn 3:16. Man had a desperate need for redemption, Rom 3:10; Mt 20:28; Heb 2:9; 1 Ti 1:15. Ultimately, a need for the remission of sins, Rom 2:5; Heb 9:22; Lk 24:46; Acts 17:3; 1 Cor 15:3. Jesus was that "acceptable sacrifice" to God, Mt 20:28; Eph 5:2; 1 Th 5:10. It was God's plan that Jesus died "vicariously" or in place of those who deserved it. This vicarious pattern was illustrated directly through the Old Testament ... The death burial and resurrection is perhaps the foremost of 5 metaphors of baptism. (New birth, clothing, circumcision, washing) Our very initiation into the family of God begins with baptism: Rom 6:2-6; Mt 16:24;; 5:24. The first requirement of becoming a Christian is "death" to self. Gal 2:20. This struggle continues throughout our walk upon the earth. Jesus ... ...

B. Well if that argument is valid, then Sabbatarians better start keeping all these days mentioned after the cross in the New Covenant.

Why is there no other place that explicit place in the New Covenant where Christians are said to be "keeping the Sabbath according to the commandment" This was the very last Sabbath day Christians ever kept, for the very next day Sunday was the day Jesus raised from the dead.

421: Will any religion get me to heaven as long as I am Sincere?
He "made havoc of the church ... and haling (dragging) men and women committed them to prison" Acts 8: 3. It is even reported further that "Saul, yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went unto the high priest, and desiring of him letters to Damascus to the synagogues, that if he found any of this way, whether men or women, he might bring them bound unto Jerusalem" Acts 9: 1,2. So here is a man who is religious about persecuting the way of Christ, believing Jesus to be an imposter. Yet, though misguided, he said, "I have lived in all good conscience before God until this day" Acts 23: 1. He had been sincere, but that sincerity wasn't enough, because you see, sin is not just a matter of violating your conscience; it is a matter of violating the will of God. John was speaking of this in I John, Chapter 3, verse 4, when he said, "Sin is the transgression of the law". In course of time a Christian named Ananias informed Saul, "Why tarriest thou? ... ...

422: Who Do You Think Jesus Is?
Who Do You Think Jesus Is? If a Gallup poll was conducted by asking the public the question, "Who do you think Jesus Christ is?", we would get a wide range of answers. Some would say Jesus was an ancient philosopher. Others, that He was a powerful religious leader or an influential social reformer. A few might even deny that He ever existed. The Lord conducted His own poll by asking his followers, "Who does the public say that I am" (Luke 9:18)? Not surprisingly, Jesus got a wide range of answers. But Jesus was most interested in what His followers thought so He next asked, "But who do you say that I am?" ... He then said, "Not everyone who calls me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of my Father" (Mt 7:21).

B. The example of the Apostolic Fathers was weekly communion: 90AD DIDACHE: "Christian Assembly on the Lord's Day: 1.

But let no one that is at variance with his fellow come together with you, until they be reconciled, that your sacrifice may not be profaned. 3. For this is that which was spoken by the Lord: In every place and time offer to me a pure sacrifice; for I am a great King, saith the Lord, and my name is wonderful among the nations." (Didache: The Teaching of the Twelve Apostles, Chapter XIV) More quotes from Apostolic Fathers on weekly communion. C. Christ instructed all to drink the cup: "And when He had taken a cup and given thanks, He gave it to them, saying, "Drink from it, all of you;" Matthew 26:27 "For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until He comes. ... ...

What we find in these early authors, then, is not a doctrine of the Trinity . . . Before Nicaea, Christian theology was almost universally subordinationist." (Gods and the One God, Robert M.

427: Encyclopedia Americana
Fourth century trinitarianism did not reflect accurately early Christian teaching regarding the nature of God; it was, on the contrary, a deviation from this teaching. This quote from Encyclopedia Americana, 1956 Vol. XXVII, p. 294L., is deceptive because it projects the false impression that early Christian teaching" was not Trinitarian. "For the early Christian belief that Jesus was divine, the Son of God, and that as the risen, glorified Messiah or Lord, He was now at the right hand of God: required the use of theistic language." (Encyclopedia Americana, Trinity, p116) The correct way to quote this source would be to say that some of the details of Trinitarian theology that 4th century Christians taught, was not as refined as the Trinitarian theology taught in the Bible. However both taught trinity, the uncreated deity of Christ and the personality of the Holy Spirit. The current theocratic organization of Jehovah's Witnesses as taught in the 20th century was not present in the ... ...

431: The early use of "nomina sacra" indicates a canon was recognized
While Christians eventually abandoned the practice of nomina sacra altogether, the Jews continue the practice by writing the word God in English as G-D where a dash is substituted for the letter O. Of course the ultimate substitution was provided by the Holy Spirit himself in the 27 books of the New Testament that consistently substitute KURIOS (Greek for "Lord") for YHWH in all Old Testament quotations in the New Testament.

Discussion: The external identifying characteristics of the witnesses to the text of the Christian Bible-the types of abbreviation of the nomina sacra, use of the codex, a common pattern of names for the individual books ("Gospel according to . . .

These false teachers just carelessly grab anything they can find to support their doctrines without doing a proper and though study.

The change in a person's life resulting in his becoming a Christian is called in the Bible, conversion, and the Bible teaches that conversion is necessary for a person to be saved. Christ likened this change to a birth and taught Nicodemus, "Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit he cannot enter into the kingdom of God" (John 3:5).

In Chapters 2, 8, 9, 10, 11, 16, 18, and 22 are 8 key examples of conversion and from these examples certain universal principles of conversion can be understood.
