Freedom in Christ is a priceless gift Of
God Jesus sold, "If the Son therefore shall
make you free, ye shall be free indeed"
Uohn 8:36).
Yet, many believers in Christ yield this
freedom to the restrictions of denonnino-
tionoI alliances and human traditions. They
cannot understand that the. church estob-
ished by Jesus Christ, and described in the
New Testament, was neither Protestant,
Roman Catholic, nor Jewsh-in the sense
that men today tend to classify one another
into religious coteeories.
The first century church Of Christ, how
ever, could be considered Jewish in the sense
that it's first members were Jews; it could be
considered protestant in the sense thot its
leaders and members would boldly protest
any new doctrines or innovations; and it was
catholic (universoD inosmuch as it was
established for all peoples of the earth.
Members Of the church in that oee were
called Christians There were thousands Of
them, and they belonged to no denonnino-
tion They we're all members only Of that
brood universal church for which Jesus died
(Acts 2O:28). They were not sectorion in
any sense. They had become members of
Christ's spiritual body throueh obedience
to the gospel Hebrews 5:8, 81.
In the unity Of foith universal, they
we're recognized universe y as simply
Christians
If this view of Christianity, so plainly
set forth in the New Testament, had been
maintained through the centuries, we would
not have the divided warning foctions that
spend their energies fighting each other
rother than fighting Satan. Sadly, thou
sands of believers in Christ are shockIed by
religious creeds.
The New Testament view of Christianity
is not q norrow-nnnded one. Under this view
alone can men hold that every person who
has been born again is q brother or sister in
Christ. Any denonninotionoI view, regard
less Of how tolerant, is bound to be more
restricting and narrow than the undenoni-
national Christianity Of the first century.

According to this view, men are free
unde~ God to believe and obey the COM
monos of God without human restrictions.
Every man is responsible to God alone for
searching the Scriptures for himself and
rendering loving obedience to the Fathers
WILL When people follow this pattern, obey
Christ's will, and associate themselves to-
eether for the purpose Of worship and
service - maintaining allegiance to Christ
rather than men or creeds of men-this is
truly the Lords church.
To be simple New Testament Chris
tion, without denoninotionoI restrictions, is
glorious privilege. One enjoys the liberty
that Christ allows, and is free from the die
totes Of men and the eccIesiostc authority
Of religious overIords This, indeed, is the
freedom that is in Christ.
