356: Lesson 23: The Lord's Church
Even by their names they do not claim to be Christ's one church. Why can't we give the glory and honor to God and Christ where the honor belongs? Today we hear the sincere but mistaken plea to "attend the church of your choice." Why not attend the church of God's choice, the church of Christ, the only one that Jesus "purchased with His own blood" (Acts 20:28). Christ did not shed His blood to purchase any denomination nor did He purchase a group of denominations. The word denomination means a fraction or part of a whole. The Lord's church is not a fraction or a part of anything. It is complete within itself. Any church ... Who are you going to follow men or Christ? Jesus says in John 12:48, "The word that I have spoken will judge him in the last day." We are not going to be judged by what our preacher says.

373: Church Creeds: The fuel of religious division
Church Creeds: The fuel of religious division In a historical trial in Waterloo, Iowa in 1951, the will of one who had left large sums of money to Christian charities was contested. In it, three Protestant clergymen were asked: "What is a Christian?" They responded by defining a Christian as one who believes in the Apostles Creed, the Holy Trinity, in God, the Divinity of Christ, and who subscribes to a confession of faith. Notice this definition denies to those refusing to accept the Apostles Creed and a denominational confession the name Christian. By it neither Peter nor Paul would qualify as a follower of Jesus, since such creeds were unknown in the First Century. In the decades following the death of John, the last living apostle, the early Church faced a difficult problem. False doctrines such as Gnosticism and Monticism plagued the body of Christ. Some even denied the deity of Jesus. To cope with the situation a simple confession of faith was devised to distinguish the ... ...

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.

The church is both divine and human since it was originated by our Lord and includes human beings. Just ...

375: Brown, Colin: New International Dictionary of New Testament Theology
... The NT does not contain the developed doctrine of the Trinity. "The Bible lacks the express declaration that the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are of equal essence and therefore in an equal sense God himself. And the other express declaration is also lacking, that God is God thus and only thus, i.e. as the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. These two express declarations, which go beyond the witness of the Bible, are the twofold content of the Church doctrine of the Trinity" (Karl Barth, CD, 1, 1, 437). It also lacks such terms as trinity.
