The Church
Is there really one true church? In the pages of the New Testament Jesus talks about the church. Many others make reference to the church. Were they referring to a universal church that encompasses many different beliefs and many different organizations or were they referencing a single entity known simply as the church? Jesus said He would build His church. We believe that He established and built a single church that would exist throughout the ages as His church. Did Christ really want only one church? Is there only one true church? Yes, it is true that He established only one true church as His church.
Is Truth Real
Yes: Let us offer a simple illustration to prove this point. Imagine you place a lit candle on the table in front of you as you tell the person next to you, "Don't touch the flame, or it will burn you." The person next to them tells them "Go ahead it will not burn." Who is actually telling what will happen? Obviously you are telling them what will really occur. You are telling them truth.
Yes, that's right - truth is real. Truth is accurate and reprsents what will happen, what is happening, or what has happened.
Is there an absolute truth that applies to all people of all time?
Yes: Let us continue with our example. Would it make any difference who would place their finger into the candle flame? Would it only burn men and not women? Would it only burn children and not adults? Would it only burn people who lived 2000 years ago and not people today?
Again, it is obvious the flame would burn any person of any age, race, gender or era.
Yes, that's right - absolute truth does exist. Truth that applies to all people all the time.
Is it possible for each individual to discover and understand truth?
Yes: Staying with our example, regardless of a person having prior knowledge the candle flame would burn their finger, they could still be burned. This truth could be discovered either by one person telling another through language or illustration, OR it could be discovered by experience. If you do not believe this would you be willing to stick your finger in a candle flame just to find out?
Yes, that's right - it is possible for each of us to discover absolute truth in our lives. Today we invite you to apply our example in a religious manner.
