Book Description
Imagine if every church were a community of believers dedicated wholly to God and growing together as followers of Christ. Is the atmosphere in your church one of peace or contention? Of joyful sacrifice or selfish ambition? It's easy to get distracted by the problems in your church brought on by sinful and self-centered living. 1 Corinthians provides a guide for unity, service, and interaction with worldly culture. If any congregation knew about problems, it was the church in ancient Corinth. Yet, these principles are as relevant and helpful today as they were for the early church. In this practical, challenging book, you will discover: - How to navigate the tricky relationship between the church and our the culture - How to answer questions about rights, preferences, and gray areas among believers - How to protect and promote unity in the church - Why love and truth rank higher than liberty and individualism Each chapter concludes with thought-provoking questions and a suggested action step so you can apply these truths to your own church community, ministry, and personal walk with God. God calls us not only into community with other believers, but unity as well. With community comes great challenges, as we are all sinners. Church Undivided details God's vision for unity in His church and Paul's guidance to create it within our own churches. About the author: Bob Ingle is the lead pastor at Waypoint Church in St. Charles, Missouri. For over a decade, he has faithfully preached the Word and equipped believers to serve God using their unique gifts. Pastor Ingle's heart is to see people transformed by truth and engaged as faithful disciples of Christ in an authentic community.

Joint Declaration on the Doctrine of Justification
Author: Lutheran World Federation
Publisher: Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing
ISBN: 9780802847744
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 52
Book Description
This volume presents in English the official Joint Declaration on the Doctrine of Justification, confirmed by the Lutheran World Federation and the Roman Catholic Church in Augsburg, Germany, in October 1999. The result of decades of Lutheran-Roman Catholic dialogue, this primary document represents an ecumenical event of historical significance. Included in the volume are the Joint Declaration on the Doctrine of Justification and the Official Common Statement with its Annex. These texts are recommended for careful study in seminaries and parishes and for reading by individual Christians. It is hoped that the Joint Declaration will deepen understanding of the biblical message of justification and also serve to further reflection within the wider ecumenical movement.

Missionary Baptism & Evangelical Unity
Author: J. Cameron Fraser
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1666725412
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 126
Book Description
The concept of missionary baptism is based on the household baptism of converts and their families described in the New Testament. This is most commonly experienced today in missionary situations, when entire families become Christians. Building on the work of nineteenth-century Scottish theologian William Cunningham, this study explores some implications for the connection between believers’ baptism, infant baptism, baby dedication, and Christian unity, particularly among evangelicals.
