  1. Unanswerable questions?

  2. The Article • COMMON SENSE QUESTIONS A "CHURCH OF CHRIST" PREACHER CANNOT CLEARLY ANSWER • By Pastor David Martin - Solid Rock Baptist Church • http://www.biblebelievers.com/david_martin/martin_church-christ.html

  3. Question 1 According to the history of the "Church of Christ," God used certain men to "restore" the New Testament Church in the early 1800's. Where was the true New Testament church before then? Jesus said that the gates of hell would not prevail against His church (Matthew 16:18). What happened to the church and where was the truth it was responsible for preaching before God restored it?

  4. Jesus will reign until the end of the age. • Acts 2:16-36 • 1 Corinthians 15:20-26 • Matthew 16:18-19, Ephesians 1:19-23

  5. The church never ceased to exist. • Luke 8:11 • Acts 2:40, 47

  6. Question 2 If a "Church of Christ" elder refuses to baptize me, will I be lost until I can find one who will? Do I need Jesus AND a Campebllite "preacher" in order to be saved? If I do, then Jesus Christ is not the only Mediator (1 Tim. 2:5) and the Holy Spirit is not the only Administrator (1 Cor. 12:13) of salvation - the "Church of Christ" preacher is necessary to salvation for heisperforming a saving act onme when he baptizes me! Is this not blasphemy against Jesus Christ and the Holy Ghost?

  7. Campbellite? • Which doctrine we believe in originated with Alexander Campbell? • Be baptized to be saved? Mark 16:16 • Baptism for the remission of sins? Acts 2:38 • Church of Christ? Romans 16:16 • First day worship and observance of the Lord’s Supper? Acts 20:7 • Singing and making melody in our hearts? Ephesians 5:19

  8. Question 2 If a "Church of Christ" elder refuses to baptize me, will I be lost until I can find one who will? Do I need Jesus AND a Campebllite "preacher" in order to be saved? If I do, then Jesus Christ is not the only Mediator (1 Tim. 2:5) and the Holy Spirit is not the only Administrator (1 Cor. 12:13) of salvation - the "Church of Christ" preacher is necessary to salvation for heisperforming a saving act onme when he baptizes me! Is this not blasphemy against Jesus Christ and the Holy Ghost?

  9. Administering baptism makes one a mediator? Do I need Jesus Christ AND a Baptist preacher to be saved? Is the one who preaches the gospel so that another might believe and be saved a second mediator? • 1 Corinthians 1:21 For since, in the wisdom of God, the world through wisdom did not know God, it pleased God through the foolishness of the message preached to save those who believe. • Romans 10:13-14

  10. Question 2 If a "Church of Christ" elder refuses to baptize me, will I be lost until I can find one who will? Do I need Jesus AND a Campebllite "preacher" in order to be saved? If I do, then Jesus Christ is not the only Mediator (1 Tim. 2:5) and the Holy Spirit is not the only Administrator (1 Cor. 12:13) of salvation - the "Church of Christ" preacher is necessary to salvation for heisperforming a saving act onme when he baptizes me! Is this not blasphemy against Jesus Christ and the Holy Ghost?

  11. The baptism of 1 Corinthians 12:13 1 Corinthians 12:13 For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free—and have all been made to drink into one spirit.

  12. The baptism of 1 Corinthians 12:13 Men are administrators of baptism in the name of Jesus. Matthew 28:18-20 Acts 8:35-38 Acts 10:44-48

  13. There is ONE baptism. • The body of Christ is the church – Ephesians 1:22-23. • We are baptized into the body of Christ. 1 Corinthians 12:13, Galatians 3:27, Acts 2:40, 47 • Ephesians 4:4-6

  14. Question 2 If a "Church of Christ" elder refuses to baptize me, will I be lost until I can find one who will? Do I need Jesus AND a Campebllite "preacher" in order to be saved? If I do, then Jesus Christ is not the only Mediator (1 Tim. 2:5) and the Holy Spirit is not the only Administrator (1 Cor. 12:13) of salvation - the "Church of Christ" preacher is necessary to salvation for heisperforming a saving act onme when he baptizes me! Is this not blasphemy against Jesus Christ and the Holy Ghost?

  15. Performing a saving act blasphemes Jesus and the Spirit? • John 8:24 • Luke 13:3 • Are we co-Saviors with Christ? • Neither is the one who baptizes us.

  16. Obey the gospel tonight! • Believe – John 8:24 • Repent – Luke 13:3 • Confess – Matthew 10:32-33 • Be Baptized – Mark 16:16 • Be Faithful – Revelation 2:10
