Jay Guin (elder, elderlink teacher, lawyer and lecturer) of the church of Christ has posted some great articles concerning church unity and polity. Thanks to Alan Rouse and his Christian Untiy site for making me aware of Jay's material. Some of the posts which are most directly related to unity follow.
Tom Jones (not the Welsh heartthrob) gives his perspective on Restoration Forum XXV. Gregg Marutzky and Tom fielded questions during a Q & A session about the ICOC after a “What’s Happening with the International Churches of Christ” update class. Tom makes a profound comment about unity and its purpose.
“I went with a concern that there might be an emphasis on unity just for the sake of unity, but several speakers went out of their way to make it clear that unless unity results in greater efforts to carry out the mission of taking the gospel to the world, it will not serve God’s purposes.”
I would like to thank Tom and Gregg for their efforts to facilitate unity within the Restoration Movement. They maintain a website, Connect 4 Change which encourages developing relationships among those in the Restoration Movement.
How important is it to know who God is? Some will say it is the job of
theologians to answer such a deep question. Other will have their
minister or pastor be the source of knowledge. Some will even go to the
bible to learn about the Lord, from their perspective. Unfortunately,
many have an incomplete or skewed view of God.
