The Interactive Bible: The church described in the New Testament is the spiritual body of Christ. The Apostle Paul, speaking of Jesus Christ, says in Ephesians 1:22,23, "And gave him to be head over all things to the church which is his body". A body is a living organism. The church is divine in its origin, since it was built by Christ himself.

Christians Should Be Different! Modern life has many aspects. Let's examine, briefly, a few Christian attitudes and actions typical in every aspect. In matters of religion Christians hear neither inner voices of instruction, nor the teachings of men; they listen well, however, to the voice of God, the Holy Bible. I Cor. 2:12, 13 teaches: "Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual." The apostle, Paul, instructing the young evangelist, Timothy, wrote (in I Timothy 6:3-5, saying: "If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which is according to godliness; he is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings, perverse disputings of men of ... ... https://www.bible.ca/g-christians-different.htm

Will any religion get me to heaven as long as I am Sincere? Will any religion get me to heaven as long as I am Sincere? Apparently many sincere people are trusting in their sincerity for salvation.

"I have, already mentioned that Sunday, too, was a pagan holy-day; and in this chapter I propose to discuss the origin of this custom of keeping one day in the week as a Sabbath, or "day of rest,' and' to show that the practice was forcefully opposed by Jesus Christ.

Review of what the Canadian Christian Missionary Alliance church ... It is very similar to Baptist with Wesleyan mix. They are classed among the "conservative Protestant" churches. Our examination reveals that only 6 of the 11 articles in the statement of Faith are true from the Bible, the other 5 are false doctrine. Article #1: correctly states the nature of God where Jesus is not a creature and the Holy Spirit is a person. They are Trinitarian and this is correct. Article #2: correctly states the nature of Christ being both uncreated God and man and the virgin birth and the second coming. Article #3: teaches false doctrine about the work of the Holy Spirit.

Subordination within the Godhead: Roles and Ranks Athanasian Creed rejects subordination The Roman Catholic and Evangelical Position: Of course, at the other end of the scale are another set of false teachers who deny Jesus was subordinate to the Father in any way.

And in this Trinity ... none is greater or less than another. But the whole three persons are ... coequal." While the vast majority of the "Athanasian Creed" is much closer to the Bible truth than the Arian view of Christ. Arian's, however, focus on this one small error in an effort to trash the whole of trinity Doctrine. Interestingly, both Roman Catholics and Jehovah's Witnesses are guilty of the same error: Namely, they both believe that if Christ is subordinate to the Father, that he is less than God.
