Hello Brethren,
Below are the lessons I learnt from Bro Eli during the mass indoctrination day one held on 11th October 2021.
If anyone thinks they are a prophet or otherwise gifted by the Spirit, let them acknowledge that what I am writing to you is the Lord’s command. But if anyone ignores this, they will themselves be ignored.
1 Corinthians 14:37-38 NIV
https://bible.com/bible/111/1co.14.37-38.NIV
As Christians we should listen to the doctrines of Our Lord Jesus Christ which can only be found in the holy scriptures (the Holy Bible)
We should never accept any teachings or doctrines that is not in the scriptures.
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. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
Matthew 28:19-20 NIV
https://bible.com/bible/111/mat.28.19-20.NIV
The first doctrine of Jesus Christ is baptism.
Baptism is performed for the washing away of sins.
Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day.
Acts 2:41 NIV
https://acts.bible/acts-2-41
To become a member of a true church you need to accept the doctrines of Jesus Christ and be baptised.
Joining the church of God is one of the primary doctrines of Jesus Christ.
Those who refuse to join the church of God which is the body of christ are antichrist.
And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy.
Colossians 1:18 NIV
https://colossians.bible/colossians-1-18
Christ is the Head of the Church so we can't receive Jesus Christ and refuse to join the church of God.
Thanks be to God.
