Teachings of the Church
By Editor
1756.—Teachings of the Church. Does the Christian Church teach anything which is not in harmony with God's Word? If so, what is it? S. If our querist means by the Christian Church the denomination by that name we would be compelled to say from our knowledge of the teachings of that church that they do. While they form no creed, while they boast of that fact, while they claim to teach the Bible and the Bible alone, they practically reject all of the Bible save the Acts of the Apostles and the epistles. In other words, the Antinomians among them seem to have such a decided antipathy to God's law that everything that pertains to it is set aside by them as having no obligation upon men now, and yet the whole great object of the sacrifice of Jesus Christ and all the efforts of Heaven are to bring men back to the same allegiance to God's law that was manifested in Christ Jesus. "This is the love of God that we keep His commandments, and His commandments are not grevious."
