But the reformers often started at different points and thus arrived at different conclusions. Division rather than unity has resulted. Churches of Christ, on the other hand, plead for the restoration of apostolic Christianity rather than a reformation of existing religious bodies. Since all can agree that the early church was right, we should also be able to agree that we cannot be wrong if we succeed in reproducing that church today in every essential part.

Although we live 1900 years later, we too can be Christians only if we will follow the same teachings given to these first followers of Jesus.
