A Message From the Sullivan

WHAT IS TRUTH?
Setting Forth The Truth According To The Bible
There are those, and maybe you fall into this category, who just want the truth — nothing more and
nothing less.  You have a desire to learn and do the truth, but yet, you need some guidance in your
quest for truth.  Maybe you are confused because of all the religious diversity that exists in our world
today.  You say to yourself, “There is only one Bible; there is only one Word of God, and yet, there are
so many different churches that teach and practice things completely different.”  This has to be very
frustrating for the one who is honestly searching for the truth.

Jesus plainly said, “And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free” (John 8:32).  There
are two things that Jesus said about truth.  [

What Must I Do To Be Saved?
Answering The World's Greatest Question Straight From The Bible
The question, "What Must I Do To Be Saved?" (or its equivalent), is asked three times in the book of
Acts.  It is found in Acts 2:37; 9:6; 16:30.

The Bible is so clear and plain in answering this question, we wonder how people miss it.  Truly, as
Paul said,
"the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of
the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them"
(2 Cor. 4:4).

Do you believe that God has a plan of salvation for the saving of your soul?  In Acts 2:47, this thrilling
statement is made:
"And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved."  Note these
important points from this scripture:

OUR PURPOSE AND PLEA
Our purpose and plea at the Sullivan church of Christ is very simple: GO BACK TO THE BIBLE FOR ALL THAT WE DO -- BE CHRISTIANS AND
CHRISTIANS ONLY -- MEMBERS OF THE LORD'S CHURCH AND HIS CHURCH ONLY.  Our purpose is to respect the authority of the Scriptures in all
things.  Paul wrote in Colossians 3:17,
"And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the
Father by him."
 The expression, "in the name of" simply means, "by the authority of."  God's Word demands that we have authority for whatever we do
-- as Paul said, "whatsoever ye do in word or deed." (
See our article "A Study of Colossians 3:17").  Our purpose is to follow the divine injunction
given by Peter --
"If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles (words) of God, . . ." (I Peter 4:11).  To follow this command is to "speak where the
Bible speaks and be silent where the Bible is silent."  This is not just some nice cliché.  It is biblical and scriptural.  It is grounded upon the Word of
God.

Our plea is for all people to go back to the Bible -- to do away with all the creeds and catechisms of men and be just what people were in the first
century -- Christians and Christians only -- members of Christ's church.  Is there any greater plea than this!?
