New Testament Fellowship

I just want to fellowship in simplicity with brothers and sisters who are content with the Lord Jesus, the Bible, the local assembly, and doing good to all.

But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost, Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.

Jude 20-21

Assemble with the Saints

 

And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.

Hebrews 10:24-25

 

The Ekklesia of Christ is the

Pillar and Ground of the Truth

1 Timothy 3:14, 15

“These things write I unto thee, hoping to come unto thee shortly: But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.”

Thy Word is Truth

Three Choices for Truth

 

Every Tribe & Tongue

 

Followers of Jesus, no matter what their race, are called to love everyone, no matter what their race. It’s cool to read in Revelation how every tribe and tongue are represented in eternity.


“And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation…”

Revelation 5:9

 

Shipwrecked on an Island

Let’s say there were ten families shipwrecked on an island with their Bibles.

Would they have EVERYTHING they needed to be the Body of Christ together?

Stop looking for the “perfect  church”.

In fact, I recommend that you stop, “looking for a church”… period.

Be the Church!

Meet regularly with friends and be all the New Testament has called you to be as brothers and sisters in Christ.

There’s got to be a way to stand for the Truth and still give one another the freedom to disagree!

If you have any thoughts on this, please email me or post to the discussion board.

Our Lord will give us wisdom and grace to speak the Truth in Love.

How shall we edify one another as we discuss?

Please visit this portion of my discussion board as I am trying to answer this question.

As the editor of this site and your fellow believer in Jesus, please hold me accountable to these truths in everything on this site and in our personal relationships.

You can register (after I unlock registration) and take part in the discussion board or you can email me. Usually I have registration locked due to spammers, so email me if you’re interested.

Our Sister, Phoebe

“I commend unto you Phebe our sister, which is a servant of the church which is at Cenchrea: That ye receive her in the Lord, as becometh saints, and that ye assist her in whatsoever business she hath need of you: for she hath been a succourer [helper] of many, and of myself also.”

Romans 16:1-2

 

 

What else is there?

1 Corinthians 12:11-31

“But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will. For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ.

“For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit. For the body is not one member, but many.

“If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body? And if the ear shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body? If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling? But now hath God set the members every one of them in the body, as it hath pleased him. And if they were all one member, where were the body? But now are they many members, yet but one body.

“And the eye cannot say unto the hand, I have no need of thee: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you. Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary: And those members of the body, which we think to be less honourable, upon these we bestow more abundant honour; and our uncomely parts have more abundant comeliness. For our comely parts have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to that part which lacked: That there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another.

“And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honoured, all the members rejoice with it. Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular. And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues. Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all workers of miracles? Have all the gifts of healing? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret?

“But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet shew I unto you a more excellent way.”
