"Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some(not all) shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron." 2 Timothy 4:1-2

It is easy to depart from the faith because Satan has many ways by which He can deceive us. Let me reveal the ways by which we can depart from the faith so that we can keep from being deceived by Satan.

Those early Christians did not depart from the faith concerning the way by which we must became a New Testament Christian because in the First Century all of those persons were born again in the same way.

I. They become a New Testament Christian by hearing the word of God. "So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God." Romans 10:17

II. They became a New Testament Saint by believing the word of God. "Without faith (minus faith on our part) it is impossible to please him (God); for he that cometh to God must believe that he is (He exists), and that he (God) is a rewarder (a promise keeper) of them that diligently seek him" (God). Hebrews 11:6

III. They became a disciple of Christ by repent of their past sins. "I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish." Luke 13:5

IV. They became a new creatures in Christ by confessing the Deity of Christ. "And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the Eunuch said, see, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized? And Philip said, if thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God." Acts 8:36-38

V. They became a New Testament Christian by being baptized into Christ for the remission of their sins. "Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name (the authority) of Jesus Christ for the remission of your sins." Acts 2:38

I. Those persons knew that baptism is a commandment of God. "For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter, can any man forbid water; that these (the Gentiles) should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Spirit as well as we (the Jews)? And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord." Acts 10:47-48

II. Those persons realized that baptism is for the remission of our past sins. "Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name (the authority) of Jesus Christ for the remission (the forgiveness) of your sins." Acts 2:38

III. Those persons conceived that baptism is for the salvation of our souls. "While the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is eight souls were saved by water. The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ." 1 Peter 3:20-21

IV. Those persons understood that baptism is Divinely Authorized by the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. "Go make disciples out of all nations, baptizing them in the name (the authority) of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit." Matthew 28:18-20

V. Those persons perceived that baptism is a burial in water. "Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead." Colossians 2:12

VI. Those persons observed that baptism is a resurrection from water. "And they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized (immersed) him. And when they were come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him not more; and he went on his way rejoicing." Acts 8:38-39

VII. Those persons discerned that baptism is the climax of the New Birth: the Spiritual Birth. "Verily, verily, I say unto thee, except a man be born again (in a spiritual way), he cannot see the kingdom of God. Nicodemus saith unto him, how can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born? Jesus answered, verily, verily, I say unto thee, except a man be born of water (be immersed in water), and of the Spirit (the teachings of the Holy Spirit), he cannot enter into the kingdom of God." John 3:3-5

Those early Christians did not depart from the faith concerning the manner in which we are to worship the Lord our God in spirit and in truth because in the First Century all of those persons who were a New Testament Christian all worshipped the Lord their God in the same way.

I. They worshipped the Lord their God by partaking of the Lord's Supper each Lord's Day: Sunday. "Upon the first day of the week (Sunday is the Lord's day), when the disciples came together to break bread (to partaker of the Lord's supper), Paul preached unto them. For as often as ye eat this bread (the unleavened bread which symbolized his body), and drink this cup (the contents of the cup contains the fruit of the vine, and the fruit of the vine symbolized his blood), ye do shew the Lord's death till he comes." Acts 20:7, 1 Corinthians 11:26 

II. They worshipped the Lord their God by praying unto Him. "And they continued steadfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers. Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayers and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. Let us therefore come bodily unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need." Acts 2:42, Philippians 4:6, Hebrews 4:16

III. They worshipped the Lord their God with vocal music only (acappella music) by singing songs of praise unto Him. "Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing (by using vocal music only) with grace in your hearts to the Lord." Colossians 3:16

Now, instrumental music was not used in the worship service of the early Church because instrumental music is not Divinely Authorized for New Testament Worship. However, instrumental music was later introduced into the worship service of the church many years after the Church had been established. It was added to the church in about 670 A.D. Nevertheless, instrumental music caused a religious division in the church which already had apostatized from the truth of God concerning many different doctrines. Thus, we should not use instrumental music in our worship service unto the Lord our God because the Lord our God has not authorized instrumental music to be used in the worship service of the New Testament Church. Therefore, vocal music only is a worship service of the New Testament Church because we can express our praises unto the Lord our God for the Divine Blessings which we are receiving in being citizens of His kingdom.

IV. They worshipped the Lord their God by giving liberally of their money unto Him. "Now concerning the collection (the giving of your money) for the saints, as I have given orders to the churches of Galatia, even so do ye. Upon the first day of the week (Sunday which is the Lord's day) let every one of you lay by him in store, as God hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come." 1 Corinthians 16:1-2

V. They worshipped the Lord their God by hearing faithful gospel preaching. "Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; by which also ye are saved, if you keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; and that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according the scriptures." 1 Corinthians 15:1-4

Those early Christians did not depart from the faith concerning the way by which we live the Christian life upon the earth because in the First Century those persons all lived a godly live upon the earth.

I. In being a New Testament Christian, they added virtue to their faith. "Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things." Philippians 4:8

II. In being a new creature in Christ, they added knowledge to their faith. "For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord: I will put my laws into their mind, and I will write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people: And they shall not teach ever man his neighbour, and every man his brother saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me from the least to the greatest. For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more." Hebrews 8:10-12

III. In being a New Testament Saint, they added temperance to their faith. "I (Paul) keep under my body, and bring it into subjection (under control with temperance): lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway." 1 Corinthians 9:27

IV. In being a disciple of Christ, they added patience to their faith. "Take, my brethren, the prophets, who have spoken in the name of the Lord, for an example of suffering affliction, and of patience. Behold, we count them happy which endure. Ye have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the end of the Lord; that the Lord is very pitiful, and of tender mercy." James 5:10-11

V. In being a son of God by regeneration, they added godliness to their faith. "But godliness with contentment is a great gain. For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. And having food and raiment let us be therewith content." 1 Timothy 6:6-8

VI. In being born again in a Spiritual way, they added brotherly kindness to their faith. "A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger. Be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you." Proverbs 15:, Ephesians 5:32 

VII. In being converted unto the truth, they added love to their faith. "By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments. For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous." 1 John 5:2-3

Those early Christians did not depart from the faith concerning the Divine Names of the New Testament Church because those persons, who lived in the First Century, understood the Divine Names of the Church.

I. They realized that the New Testament Church is called the Church of God because God planned the Church. "Unto the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified (set apart) in Christ Jesus." 1 Corinthians 1:2

II. They conceived that the New Testament Church is called the Churches of Christ because Christ built the Church. "The churches of Christ salute you." Romans 16:16

III. They perceived that the New Testament Church is called the Church of the Firstborn because they were a new creature in Christ. "To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven." Hebrews 12:23 

IV. They understood that the New Testament Church is simply called the Church because they were called out of the wicked world. "To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God." Ephesians 3:10

V. They knew that the New Testament Church is called the Kingdom of Heaven because their citizenship was in heaven. "I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven." Matthew 16:19

Those early Christians did not depart from the faith concerning the Biblical Names by which members of the Church are called because in the First Century all those persons understood the reasons why members of the Church are called by Biblical Names.

I. They were called Christians because they were one like Christ. "If any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf." 1 Peter 4:16 

II. They were called the children of God because they were the children of God by regeneration. "For ye (Christians) are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ." Galatians 3:26-27 

III. They were called brethren because they belong unto the same spiritual family. "Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault. Ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness, considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted." Galatians 6:1

IV. They were called saints because they were sanctified. "To all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints." Romans 1:7 

V. They were called disciples because they were learners of Christ. "And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch." Acts 11:26

I. God being our Creator. Therefore, some of those people thought that God was the name (the being) of three ranked Persons who would be called the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit in being their Creator; whereas, they thought that Christ was the name (the being) of a ranked Person who would be called the Son (Jesus) in being their Redeemer.

A. This is why they made the Father to be the first Person in power, rule and authority; the Son to be the second Person in power rule and authority; and the Holy Spirit to be the third Person in power rule and authority.

B. Those doctrines are stated in the Nicene Creed which was written in 325 A.D. by 318 uninspired men. "I believe in one God, the Father, Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, and of all things visible and in-visible; I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God; begotten of the Father before all worlds. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceedeth from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son together is worshipped and glorified, who spake by the prophets."

II. Some of those people knew that God was the name of three equal Persons who are called the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit in being their Creator because they conceived that the one God of the Scriptures can be more than one Heavenly Person providing that those Heavenly Persons equally possess the same Personage, Powers, Nature and Attributes of the one and only God. God is the name of a Sovereign Family who lives in heaven, but God became the name of a created family who lives upon the earth because we are the sons of God. Paul said concerning the name of God, "Of whom (God) the whole family in heaven and earth is named." This is why God said in reference to our own creation of life, "Let us (who are the Heavenly Persons that are called God) make man in our image, after our likeness. So God created man in his own image" (of life). John said concerning those three Heavenly Persons who are called God in being our Creator, "For there are three (Persons) that bear record (of our creation) in heaven, the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit: and these three (Persons) are one" (equal) in matters of Their Own Individual Nature of life because They equally possess the same Personage, Powers, Nature and Attributes of the one and only God. Ephesians 3:15, Genesis 1:26-27, 1 John 5:7 (*Personage means possessing a Spiritual Body, and an Eternal Soul and Spirit. *Powers signify being Omnipotent, Omniscient and Omnipresent. *Nature reveals being eternal, impartial, perfect, spiritual and etc. *Attributes indicate being lovable, righteous, merciful, faithful, and etc.)

I. Christ being our Redeemer. Therefore, some of those people thought that Christ was the name (the being) of a ranked Person who would be called the Son (Jesus) in being their Redeemer because they thought that God was the being of three ranked Persons who would be called the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit in being their Creator.

II. Some of those people knew that Christ was the name of three equal Persons who are called the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit in being their Redeemer because they realized that Christ was made to be more than one Heavenly Person who is called the Son (Jesus) in matters of their own redemption of life. Paul said concerning the name of Christ, "Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity." This is why those three God-Persons who are called the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit in being our Creator equally made Themselves to work in the Name of Christ in being called the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit so that They could be our Redeemer. These Scriptures affirm that the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit are the three God-Persons who equally made Themselves to be called Christ in being the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit so that They could be our Redeemer. "The Lord (God) said unto my Lord (Christ), sit thou on my right hand, until I make the foes thy footstool. Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that the Lord God (who was the being of the Father and the Holy Spirit in heaven) hath made that same Jesus (who was the Incarnated Word upon the earth), whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ." Jesus (who was made both Lord and Christ in matters of our own redemption of life ) said concerning those three Heavenly Persons who are called Christ in being our Redeemer, "Go teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit." 2 Timothy 2:19, Acts 2:34-36, Matthew 28:18-20

Now, if we should make God to be three ranked Persons who would be called the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit in being our Creator, and if we should also make Christ to be a ranked Person who would be called the Son (Jesus) in being our Redeemer, we would completely degrade all aspects of our own divine nature of life because this would make us to possess the Divine Nature of a ranked God (three ranked Persons) in matters of our own creation of life; whereas that would make us to possess the Divine Nature of a one Person Christ (a ranked Person) in reference to our own redemption of life. Therefore, since God is the being of three equal Persons who are called the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit in being our Creator, and since Christ is the being of three equal Persons who are called the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit in being our Redeemer, this greatly magnifies the total sum of our own divine nature of life because we in being a New Testament Christian have been created and redeemed by three equal Persons who are made to be called God and Christ in matters of our own creation and redemption of life so that in that world which is to come we can become equal with Them.

I. Some of those early Christians did depart from the faith because the majority of those people began to make one created man to be greater than another created man. This is why James said, "But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors. for whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all." James 2:9-10

III. Some of those early Christians did depart from the faith because the majority of those people began to make one redeemed man to be greater than another redeemed man. This is why Paul said, "Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name (the authority) of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same things, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment. For it hath been declared unto me of you, my brethren, by them which are of the house of Chloe, that there are contentions among you. Now this I say, that every one you saith I am of Paul; and I of Apollos and I of Cephas (Peter); and I of Christ. For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisors, are ye not carnal, and walk as men? For while one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollos; are ye not carnal? 1 Corinthians 1:10-12, 1 Corinthians 3:3-4

IV. Some of those early Christians did depart from the faith because one man really wanted the preeminence (to be first in power, rule and authority) in a congregation. This is why John said, "I wrote unto the church: but Diotrephes, who loveth to have the preeminence among them, receiveth us not. Wherefore, if I come, I will remember the deeds which he doeth, prating against us with malicious words: and not content therewith, neither doeth he himself receive the brethren, and forbiddeth them that would, and casteth them out of the church." 3 John 1:9-10

VI. Some of those early Christians did depart from the faith because the eldership in the Church began to led some people into religious error. This is why Paul said to the elders of the Church,"Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Spirit hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood. For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock. Also of you own selves (the eldership) shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciple after them. Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one might and day with tears." Acts 20:28-31

I. If we do not learn the True Being of God and the True Being of Christ in being our Creator and our Redeemer, we could be deceived concerning the Divine Blessings of New Testament Christianity. This is why Paul said, "Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie; that they all might be damned who believe not the truth, but had pleasure in uprightness." 2 Thessalonians. 2:9-12

II. If we do not understand the Divine Nature of the New Testament Church, we could be beguiled by false teachers. This is why the Bible says, "Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God; because many false prophets are gone out into the world. But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that brought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction." 1 John 4:1, 2 Peter 2:1

I. God has revealed the way by which we must become a New Testament Christian.

II. God has revealed the manner in which we are to worship Him in spirit and in truth.

III. God has revealed the way by which we are to live the Christian live upon the earth.

IV. God has revealed our own divine nature unto us because Christ brought life and immortality to light by the gospel.

Now, we don't possess the Divine Nature of a ranked God in matters of our own creation of life, nor do we possess the Divine Nature of a one Person Christ in reference to our own redemption of life because God is not the being of three ranked Persons who would be called the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit in being our Creator nor is Christ the being of a ranked Person who would be called the Son (Jesus) in being our Redeemer. Therefore, we do possess the Divine Nature of God who is the being of three equal Persons that are called the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit in matters of our own creation of life and we do possess the Divine Nature of Christ who is the being of three equal Persons that are called the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit in reference to our own redemption of life because those three God-Persons who are called the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit in being our Creator equally made Themselves to work in the Name of Christ in being called the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit so that They could be our Redeemer. This means that God and Christ are the Two Divine Names in which three equal Persons who are made to work in being our Creator and our Redeemer so that in that world which is to come we can become equal with Them.

"For the invisible things of him (God) from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse." Romans 1:20

I. Those Heavenly Persons who are ruling in the Godhead (a Divine Term which means the Divine Rule of God) in matters of our own creation of life expresses the greatness of our own divine nature of life because we possess Their Divine Features of life in being our Creator. For an example:

A. The Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit are the three equal Persons who are ruling in the Godhead in reference to our own creation of life because the one God of the Scriptures can be more than one Heavenly Person providing that those Heavenly Persons equally possess the same Personage, Powers, Nature and Attributes of the one and only God. This is why God said in reference to our own creation of life, "Let us (who are the Heavenly Persons that are called God) make man in our image, after our likeness. So God created man in his own image" (of life). Paul said concerning the Godhead in reference to our own creation of life, "Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and man's device." John said concerning those three Heavenly Persons who are ruling in the Godhead in matters of our own creation of life, "For there are three (Persons) that bear record (of our creation) in heaven, the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit: and these three (Persons) are one" (equal) in matters of Their Own Individual Being of life because They equally possess the same Personage, Powers, Nature and Attributes of the one and only God. Genesis 1:26-27, Acts 17:29 1 John 5:7 (*Personage means possessing a Spiritual Body, and an Eternal Soul and Spirit. *Powers signify being Omnipotent, Omniscient and Omnipresent. *Nature reveals being eternal, impartial, perfect, spiritual and etc. *Attributes indicate being lovable, righteous, merciful, faithful, and etc.)

B. Since the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit are the three equal Persons who are ruling in the Godhead in reference to our own creation of life, this greatly magnifies the whole being of our own divine nature of life because we possess the Divine Characteristics of God who is the being of three equal Persons in being our Creator.

II. Are the above statements true or false?_______

"The head of Christ is God. For in him (Christ) dwelleth (ruleth) all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. And ye (Christians) are complete in him (Christ), who is the head of all principality and power." 1 Corinthians 11:3, Colossians 2:9-10

I. The manner in which God was made to be the head of Christ and the way by which Christ was made to be subjected to God reveals the greatness of our own divine nature of life because we possess the Divine Traits of God and the Divine Characteristics of Christ in matters of our own creation and redemption of life. For illustrating purposes:

A. God who is the head of Christ and Christ who is subjected to God is the being of a Father-head Figure and an Offspring Status Relationship instead of being two ranked Persons because those three God-Persons, who are called the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit in being our Creator, made Themselves to work in the Name of Christ in being called the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit so that They could be our Redeemer. This is why, "The Lord (God) said unto my Lord (Christ), sit thou on my right hand, until I make the foes thy footstool. Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that the Lord God (who was the being of the Father and the Holy Spirit in heaven) hath made that same Jesus (who was the Incarnated Word upon the earth), whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ." Jesus (who was made both Lord and Christ in matters of our own redemption of life) said concerning those three Heavenly Persons who are called Christ in being our Redeemer, "Go teach all nations, baptizing them in the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit." Acts 2:34-36, Matthew 28:18-20

B. Since God who is the head of Christ and Christ who is subjected to God is the being of a Father-head Figure and an Offspring Status Relationship instead of being two ranked Persons, this highly amplifies all aspects of our own divine nature of life because we do not possess the Divine Features of ranked Persons in matters of our own creation and redemption of life.

II. Are the above statements true or false?_______

For in him (Christ) dwelleth (ruleth) all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. And ye (Christians) are complete in him (Christ), who is the head of all principality and power." Colossians 2:9-10

I. Those Heavenly Persons who are ruling in the Godhead bodily of Christ (a Divine Term which signifies the Divine Rule of Christ) in matters of our own redemption of life explains the greatness of our own divine nature of life because we possess the Divine Characteristic of God and the Divine Traits of Christ in matters of our own creation and redemption of life. For illustrating purposes.

A. The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are the three equal Persons who are ruling in the Godhead bodily of Christ (a Divine Term which means the Divine Rule of Christ) in reference to our own redemption of life because we in being an alien sinner must be baptized into Christ for the remission of our sins by being baptized in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. "For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ." Our Lord said concerning those three Heavenly Persons who are called Christ in being our Redeemer, "Go teach all nations, baptizing them in the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit." Galatians 3:27, Matthew 28:18-20

B. Since the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are the three equal Persons who are ruling in the Godhead bodily of Christ in reference to our own redemption of life, this greatly amplifies the total sum of our own divine nature of life because we possess the Divine Characteristics of Christ who is the being of three equal Persons in being our Redeemer.

II. Are the above statements true or false?_______

I. If we will learn that God is the being of three equal Persons who are called the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit in being our Creator, and if we will learn that those three God-Persons, who are called the Father, the Word and the Holy Spirit in being our Creator, made Themselves to work in the name of Christ in being called the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit so that They could be our Redeemer, we would understand the greatness of our own divine nature of life because we have been created and redeemed by three equal Persons who are called God and Christ in matters of our own creation and redemption of life so that in that world which is to come we can become equal with Them.

II. Are the above statements true or false?_______

I. We can't Scripturally make a centralized head (a ranked hierarchy) to rule in the New Testament Church because we are all equal in matters of our own creation and redemption of life. This is why the clergy and the laity class of people can not Scripturally exist in the New Testament Church because no one redeemed person can Scripturally rule a congregation of the Lord's Church. Therefore, we should not call any redeemed person: Reverend or Father because those are Divine Titles which belong unto the Lord our God (not redeemed man). "Holy and reverend is his name. Call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven." Psalms 111:9, Matthew 23:9

II. We can't Scripturally make any created person to be any greater than we are in a created way, nor can we Scripturally make any created person to be any less than we are in a created way because we are equal in matters of our own creation of life. This is why no one race of people is any greater than another race of people because we are all equal in reference to our own creation of life. Therefore, we should not respect any one person above another person because God is no respecter of persons. "Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons: But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him. If ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors, For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilt of all." Acts 10:34-35, James 2:9-10

III. We can't Scripturally make any redeemed person to be any greater than we are in a redeemed way, nor can we Scripturally make any redeemed person to be any less than we are in a redeemed way because we are all equal in matters of our own redemption of life. This means that no one priest, elder, or bishop has any more power, rule and authority than another priest, elder or bishop because no one redeemed man can Scripturally rule a congregation of the Lord's Church. Each congregation of the New Testament Church is autonomous (self-ruled) because of the equality of our own creation and redemption of life. Therefore, Christ (not a redeemed man) is the head of the Church. "Christ is the head (the ruler) of the church; and he is saviour of the body: the Church." Ephesians 5:23
