Organizing A Church
As noted in our tutorial on worship assemblies, any fellowship of believers which regularly gathers to worship is a church – even if that fellowship or congregation consists of only two or three people. When a congregation is small, not much organization is needed, or even possible. The congregation can function very well on an […]
Teaching Others
Why should the followers of Christ be concerned about teaching others? One reason is that teaching someone else is one of the best ways to learn. Each one of us should be growing in our knowledge of Jesus Christ. (See 2 Peter 3:18.) Another reason to teach is that Jesus told us to. We cannot claim […]
Baptism
Baptism is an essential part of the salvation process. Our sins are forgiven and we become followers of Christ when we are baptized. Baptism is performed by totally immersing a person in water who wishes to become a follower of Christ. The water itself has no special power. The act of baptism is not a […]
Sharing Your Faith With Others
Shortly before being taken up to heaven Jesus gave His disciple an important command: “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.

Studying God’s Word
Where can we find guidance in a dark world? Psalm 119, verse 105 says, “Your word is a lamp to my feet, and a light for my path.” The Holy Spirit inspired the Apostle Paul to write, “Every Scripture is God-breathed and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for instruction in righteousness, that […]
The Worship Assembly
Now that you have become a follower of Christ, you need to grow in your knowledge of Him and try to become like Him. An important part of this is meeting regularly with other followers to worship together and to encourage one another. A fellowship or congregation of believers is called a church. It may […]
Becoming a Follower of Christ
Studying the material on this website will help you know the truth about Christ. But knowing the truth about Him and following Him are different things. Knowledge merely engages our minds, following Christ is a choice we make with our wills. If you want to follow Him, please ask yourself these questions: 1) Do you […]
