Re: The Early Christians: In Their Own Words

God is all that matters here; and to acknowledge him is to acknowledge that

the Word Incarnate will renew God’s creation. According to the apostles, 
the Word goes out from Jesus, and through the Spirit, which gathers the 
church, it invades human conditions. God is the one God, and the coming 
Messiah is both the creating Logos and the historical Jesus. He is one and

the same, he is Lord of the church, he is the healing Savior of all. 
“Accept him! Draw near! Live as he lived, and do as he said!” Teachers 
gifted with the Spirit led people to Christ, to the church of the one
faith 
and witness, and on to a new life governed by the divine citizen****p of
the 
future.
