MEMBERSHIPFrom the New Testament we see that to become a Christian or follower of Christ and to become a member of his Church are the same. We also see that in the first century that one became a member because of his own choice to do so. No one else could make this decision for him. The following are necessary in order to become a member: - Hear the Gospel, Romans 10:17 - Believe, Hebrews 11:6 - Repentance, Acts 17:30 - Confession, Matt. 10:32 - Baptism for the remission of sin, Acts 2:38 |
