3. A Proper Answer Requires Proper Source
What I think about it is NOT the deciding factor
What YOU think about it is NOT the deciding factor
What SOMEBODY ELSE says about it is NOT the deciding factor

4. A Proper Answer Requires Proper Source
What GOD says about it in His Word IS the deciding factor
Matthew 7:13,14
Matthew 7:21-24
Titus 2:11; John 3:16; 1 Timothy 2:3,4
John 17:17

5. RELYING UPON GOD’S WORD AS OUR SOLE SOURCE FOR THE SOUL
“Speaking where the Bible speaks, being silent where the Bible is silent”
Doing Bible things in Bible ways; Calling Bible things by Bible names {Colossians 3:17; 1 Corinthians 4:6}

6. THE CHURCH & SALVATION Acts 2:47 “Lord add to the church”
Ephesians 5:23,27 “Christ is head of the church”
Which church are people added to?
Which church will be saved?
The church established by Christ – that belongs to Him

7. THE CHURCH THAT BELONGS TO HIM
Matthew 16:13-18
Note the singular nature of Christ’s church
Ephesians 1:22,23 “head over all things to the church, which is His body”
Ephesians 4:4 “there is one body”
We need to make sure the church of which we are a part is indeed the church that belongs to Christ

Autonomous congregations with men who met specific qualifications – 1 Timothy 3:1-7; Titus 1:5-9

12. THE “CHURCH OF CHRIST” NOT TO BE LOOKED AT AS DENOMINATIONAL TITLE
It is a descriptive phrase
What is taught & practiced determines the identity of a church
Whether it follows the Biblical pattern & instructions determines if it belongs to Christ & whether or not its members have hope of eternal life in Heaven
