Then compare this statement ... Emphasize the how, who, and why of baptism and then compare it to what the seeker has done.

306: Ministers Fellowship International (MFI)
We do not accept that this and other ministries were to be confined to an "apostolic age" but they are to be fully activated until the physical return of Christ. Prayer and Intercession. We believe that both personal and corporate prayer are absolutely essential if the Church is to succeed. The New Testament Church was birthed in prayer, it continued steadfast in prayer and bathed all of its activities and ministries in prayer. In fact, when the Bible labels the Church or the House of God, the label it gives it is "a house of prayer for all nations" (Isaiah 56:7). If that is the name that God has chosen for His house, prayer should be a major focus ... It is essential that rather than criticizing the Church, we do everything we can to make the Church of Jesus Christ glorious. The Church is God's instrument to extend His purposes in the earth today.

308: Cigarette Smoking and the Bible
Cigarette Smoking and the Bible Although smoking was unknown during the ages when the Bible was being written, the Bible provides adequate teaching, through principle, about this relatively modern habit. In I Corinthians 6:19-20, the Apostle Paul wrote to Christians, "Know you not that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit which is in you, which you have of God, and you are not your own? For you were bought with a price: Therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit which are God's". Much modern evidence shows smoking to be a health hazard to the extend that each package of cigarettes must, by law, bear this message, "Warning: the Surgeon General has determined that cigarette smoking is dangerous to your health". ...

His subtle and beguiling ways have earned for him an appropriate name, "devil", or slanderer. There are implications in Scripture that Satan is a spirit being who was formerly an angel.

There are, for example, well over 60 distinct predictions in regard to our divine Saviour Jesus Christ. Here is a sample of just 10 prophecies that foretold the crucifixion of Christ. Not only were the predictions made 1000 years before Christ came from heaven to earth, but they were made over 500 years before crucifixion was first used anywhere in the world as a form of capital punishment!

328: How Can Man Be Justified With God?
The writer of the Roman letter, the inspired apostle, stated clearly that being justified by faith and making peace with God will be realized when our faith is great enough to cause us to obey from the heart the form of doctrine delivered. (Romans Chapter 6, verses 17-18) The doctrine delivered is the death, burial and resurrection of Christ. In I Corinthians Chapter 15, verses 1 through 5, "Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also you have received, and wherein you stand; By which also you are saved, if you keep in memory what', I preached unto you, unless you have believed in vain. For I delivered unto ... favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved". Their being saved is equivalent to being justified with God as to be justified means to be declared guiltless or blameless or to be regarded as righteous on the ground of Christ's mediatorial work.

329: Why Are There So Many Different Churches?
Christ, and that there is only one body." Ephesians 1:22,23 & 4:4-6. A simple reading of the New Testament reveals that in bible times, there was only one church, and that all faithful Christians were a part of that one great body of believers (I Corinthians 12:12-13). Although the term churches is occasionally used in the New Testament to refer to a plurality of individual congregations in different locations, such as the seven churches of Asia (Revelations 2:3). The Bible is quick to point out that the same doctrine was preached in all of them (I Corinthians 4:17). Perhaps you're wondering in view of the unity of the first century why there are so many conflicting denominations and by what authority they exist. The purpose of this lesson then is not to be critical of sincerity of good intentions of anyone, but to find a bible answer for these important questions. Down through the centuries, it has always been a tendency of mankind to attempt to improve upon God's divine plan, and ... ...

338: Does God Approve Instrumental Music in church?
This is another way of saying that if you cannot find command or example for an act of worship in the will of Christ (the New Testament), you should not do that act. (Study Romans 10:17 and 14:23) Thus, if an act of worship -is done without scriptural approval, it is done without faith, for faith comes by hearing the Word of God. Because that which is not of faith is sin, it is unnecessary that the Word of God prohibit the act; it is only necessary that it be uncommanded. Hence, the argument that instruments of music may be used because the Bible does not prohibit their use, is wrong. God has always required that man obey His directions; faith is defined as man's obedience to God's ...
