Must One Be Baptized by an Elder?
One of the more interesting claims asserted by our denominational friend is the idea that the churches of Christ teach a man must be baptized by an elder or preacher of the churches of Christ in order to be truly saved. He puts the question this way (emphasis his): If a “Church of Christ” elder […]
Are Members of the church of Christ “Campbellites?”
As we continue our refutation of the accusations of a baptist preacher we turn now to a term that he uses in his article. He uses the term “Campbellite” to speak of members of the church of Christ. Some have never heard such a term as it hasn’t been used in decades. The term is […]
