Since the church of Christ is still in existence, should I be considered out of order when I
contend that people enter the church now just as the people in the first century? "Then
they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them
about three thousand souls" (Acts 2:41).
Peter preached the word, the people heard, believed, and repented, and the preachers baptized those who demanded it, but Christ accepted their obedience and received them into the church. "And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved" (Acts 2:47). Are people added to the same church in the same way now? The answer is, "Yes," for the Bible has not changed, and neither has Jesus Christ. Will you obey the Lord as they did on Pentecost and be added to His church by Him? |
