3. Jeremiah 6:16
Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye
in the ways, and see, and ask
for the old paths, where is the
good way, and walk therein, and
ye shall find rest for your souls.
4. Return back to the old paths
of religion, back to the
church of the New
Testament and be simply be
Christians.
Our Plea
5. Christ established the New Testament
church in Jerusalem in 33 A.D.
All the saved became a part of it (Acts 2:47).
Christ was and still is the only head of that church
(Eph. 1:22).
It wore His name (Rom. 16:16).
They only followed the things He commanded through His
apostles (Mt. 28:20).
They only worshipped in spirit and according to truth
(Jn. 4:24).
They did not serve the doctrines and commandments of
men (Mt. 15:9).
9. In the midst of all this, we call for a
Return to the Bible and the
Bible alone as the only rule and
practice in religion and the
abandonment of all human creeds
and churches.
10. Our Plea
To choose the old paths…
a plea to “restore’
the church to
its original condition
a plea to return to
the old ways…
11.
12.
13. We know the restoration plea is
right because it takes into
account the authority and all
sufficiency of the scriptures
14.
15. The essential difference of the
church of Christ from the rest of the
religious world is that it follows no
creed, written or unwritten, but the
New Testament only
16. We Know the Restoration
Plea is Right Because it is so
Practical.

18. Luke 8:11
The seed
is the word
of God.
1 Peter 1:23 Being born
again, not of corruptible
seed, but of
incorruptible, by the
word of God, which
liveth and abideth for
ever.
