Hello brethren peace be with you all, delighted today as I was blessed with the pure doctrines of our Lord Jesus Christ from our zoom meeting. Let me share with you in summary lessons I learnt.
The mosaic era is over and we are in the dispensation of our Lord Jesus Christ for that we need to seek the truth and beware of false doctrines. In religion we need to listen and join where they teach pure doctrines.
We need to study the doctrines of Christ. In the early the early Christians they recognize only the teachings of Jesus Christ so we should follow suit and do the same by listening to the teachings of our master.
Matthew 17:5 While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him.
Jude 1:4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.
There are consequences for us when listen to false teaching, for that we need not to follow the commandments of men but that of God so we need to be careful choosing our religion.
Matthew 7:7 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:7:8 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
God edge us to send the gospel to all nations and baptized them, for this we need to obey and send his word to all nations.
Matthew 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:28:20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
The first doctrine to be done is Baptism, but first we need to examine the doctrines of Christ. Brethren we need to accept only things that are written in the Bible.
1 Corinthians 14:37 If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord.
There is a proof that the first doctrine is baptism. The first thing Paul was told to obey when he was becoming part of the church of God was baptism.
Galatians 1:13 For ye have heard of my conversation in time past in the Jews' religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God, and wasted it.
Acts 22:16 And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord.
Corinthians 1:1 Paul called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes our brother,1:2 Unto the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that in every place call upon the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both their's and our's.
Baptism I the formal way of joining the church .is it necessary to join the church of God
Act 2:41 Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls.Act 2:46 And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart,Act 2:47 Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.
Colossians 1:18 And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all
things he might have the preeminence.
Gentile should be part of the body which is the church.joining the church is the will of God.
If we do not accept the word ,John12:48 He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.
The church was establish by God for men to Join
