Learning from past mistakes is the greatest defense against present and future error. There is no escaping the fact that, in whatever form it may appear, history will repeat itself. But we can create better years of antiquity by intelligently analyzing the past to alter the future's course, and while making the present a benevolent catalyst to forward a more complete amendment in thought and feeling.In this comprehensive examination of the early Christian church, the reader is taken into the past to observe the religious world through the eyes of John, Peter, and Paul. We begin our journey around the year 50A.D. We will then conscientiously monitor the development of the early church until 300A.D. This primitive history reveals an important transition in Christian manners of devotion. Christian elders, abandoning the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, began establishing a creed and service at odds with what that the first apostles preached, and with what their LORD and His Christ taught. The theme behind this early period of church history is captured by the apostle John, who writes, "They went out from us, but they were not of us," 1 John 2:19. The reader will understand what prompted John to say this, and why, at this point in time, it was necessary to chronicle such a conclusion.

Heaven's Genuine & Counterfeit Ministry is a book illustrating the Bible's new covenant Faith, only to discern, arising from the earth, a strange ministry foreign to its objective. The ground, upon which the living God's heavenly mediation is built, is a benevolent decree for the inward parts of man. The doer of this instruction will find their conversation translated from an earthy house to heaven's Temple for a more thorough education on creation's current assignment, to the end the mystery within heaven's Building may find itself finished within their heart. Heaven's commandment, and its promise for newness through its course of personal learning, is examined, yet amid this discourse, the reader is suddenly made to observe a conflicting manner pushing against heaven's desire. A political entity has arisen upon the scene of action with a counterfeit religious course and commandment to disturb the intention of heaven's throne. This new civil creature has a will of his own, and being controlled by certain priests of a misleading aim and character, he will, by their counsel, establish a rule that is most injurious to the conscience and religious conversation of heaven's citizens, and by deception will strip away and replace heaven's right peace for earth.A great topic source for ministers' discourses.
