Rule of
Faith |
|
John 20:30-31 |
And many other signs
truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in
this book: But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is
the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through
his name. |

things happened unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our
admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come. |

approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly
dividing the word of truth. |

under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, |
|
Ephesians 4:11 - 12 |
And he gave
some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors
and teachers; For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the
ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: |
|
I Timothy 5:17 |
Let the elders that rule
well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the
word and doctrine. |

truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. |

attention fixed on the Apostles’ teaching and were united together in the
taking of broken bread and in prayer. |
|
Ephesians 5:19 |
Speaking to yourselves
in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your
heart to the Lord; |
| |
| |
|
Practice |
|
James 1:27 |
Pure religion and undefiled
before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in
their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world. |
|
II Peter 1:5-11 |
And beside this, giving
all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; And
to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience
godliness; And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly
kindness charity. For if these things be in you, and abound, they make
you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our
Lord Jesus Christ. But he that lacketh these things is blind, and
cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old
sins. Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling
and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall: For
so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting
kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. |
