The pattern for the Church.

     The teaching, and practice set forth in the New Testament, is the pattern for the Church today. The teachings of Jesus in the gospels, the teachings of the Apostles in the epistles, as well as the actions of the early church in the book of Acts, are what we need to come into alignment with.
     The faith has been delivered once for all time to the church. There is no new doctrine. We must be careful that we do not add to biblical revelation. We also must not detract from the standard set forth in scripture. This includes the gifts of the spirit. Many today believe that the gifts have ceased, miracles have ceased etc. This is far from true. The church is to walk in the power of the Holy Spirit, doing the works that Christ did when He walked the earth.
     Let's get up to the standard!
