  • A Response to Fellowship Compromises in the Church of Christ Dub Mcclish
    A Response to Fellowship Compromises in The Church of Christ Dub McClish Introduction Satan and all of his minions outside the church have always opposed it. He did his best to prevent the Lord from establishing the church in the first place. Although he was allowed to put the Lord to death on the cross, thus employing even “the gates of Hades,” he could not prevail and, Christ built His church just as He had promised (Mat. 16:18)1. Since the establishment of the church, God’s faithful people in it have been a holy nation under siege by a world of allied forces consisting of atheism, humanism, paganism, hedonism, and denominationalism. Satan will not cease his opposition to the God-beloved and blood-bought church of Christ until he is finally cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, there to be forever confined (Rev. 20:10). From time to time there have been those spiritual “fifth columnists,” traitors within the kingdom of Christ, who are guilty of spiritual high treason. While feigning loyalty to their Commander-in-Chief and His Constitution, all the while they are consorting with the enemy. They sometimes have great swelling words of praise for the enemy while they harshly criticize and belittle the Lord’s elect in the very presence of the foe. In the last third of the twentieth century the number of these modern-day Judases has proliferated. They are in places of immense influence as elders, preachers, publishers, editors, authors, and university administrators and professors. These ungodly and misguided brethren are attacking the church at every fundamental point of doctrine and practice, thereby attempting to change it to fit their culturally-dictated agenda.

  • Is FHU Serious About Commending a Clown Ministry?
    Is FHU Serious about Commending a Clown Ministry? Gary McDade In the late ‘70s Time magazine ran a story about the introduction of clowns into the ministry in denominational churches. Members of the church of Christ who commented on it reacted with more sadness than surprise due to the loss of dignity for things divine. More recently a local congregation has adopted the clown concept. The degradation of the Sycamore View Church of Christ in Memphis into denominationalism is demonstrated by the description of the clown ministry on the church’s website: “The Sycamore View Church of Christ Funnybones Clown Troupe was born in January, 2000. It had been a vision of Ed ‘Shivers’ Cookenham and his wife Leanne ‘Sadie’ Braddock to start a clown ministry. The idea was presented to the church’s Youth Minister, Joe Godley, who thought it was a great idea. Shortly after he told the youth group about it eight young men and women said yes. When the clown classes started in early February of 2000 the goal was to get ready for our church’s mission trip to Donetsk, Ukraine” (http://svcc). The disappointment of developments deepens when a full page ad on the last page of the so-called Christian Chronicle which boasts a circulation of near 100,000 reads: “As far as Lisa’s quest to become a clown, she put her trust in Michelle that one day it might come true. Michelle took her to her home congregation, the Sycamore View Church of Christ, which just happened to have a clown ministry, complete with make-up, training...the whole circus.

  • Fundamentals of the Faith
    Third Annual TRUTH IN LOVE LECTURESHIP Theme: Fundamentals Of The Faith May 12-16, 1993 PAUL SAIN, DIRECTOR Hosted By The East Hill Church Of Christ 509 E. Madison •• 1Pulaski, TN 38478 1993 Printed in the United States of America A Product Of Sain Publications 217 E. Jefferson ••Pulaski, TN 38478 (615) 363-6905 or 363-8868 2 INTRODUCTION This is our Third Annual Lectureship. The theme for the first series was: “Stedfast, Unmoveable, Always Abounding.” The theme for the second series was: “Soberly, Righteously, and Godly.” These first two series of lessons enjoyed significant success, for which we are thankful. The elders of the East Hill church have always been sincerely concerned about faithfully fulfilling their responsibility of overseeing and feeding the flock, over whom they have the charge from the heavenly Father. This grave responsibility is intensified especially in light of false teachers and doctrines existing all around. While they recognize the automony of each congregation, it has also been their desire to encourage, participate with, and provide solid faithful material and lessons for all Christians throughout our area. The elders at East Hill decided to conduct and host a lectureship here, believing it would be an appropriate way to teach and stand for that which is right in the sight of God, and oppose the false ideas and ways being advocated by men among us today, in the brotherhood, and from those in the world. The theme for the lectureship this year is: “Fundamentals Of The Faith.” Various thoughts are needed to convey the reason for this twenty- one lesson overview of many of the basic truths of the gospel of Christ.
