From:  https://www.biblecharts.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Manuscript-Baptism-1.pdf 1.  221  years later man made the first change to the biblical doctrine of baptism.  A.D. 251  – The historical occurrence of pouring (Affusion) was the “baptism” of Novation as he lay on his deathbed. It was initially viewed as an exception to the rule, being administered to the sick only. However, over time and through conditioning, it became the accepted practice. This change came  221  years after New Testament baptism had been implemented, and about  126  years after the last of the Bible books had been inspiringly penned . 2.  1,090  years later man made a second change to the biblical doctrine of baptism.  A.D. 1311  – Sprinkling as a form of “baptism” was authorized by the Roman Catholic Church and was legalized by the Council of Ravenna. 3.  189  years after sprinkling was added as baptism...

  by    Kevin Cauley  at  https://churchofchristarticles.com/imitating-forgiveness/ “Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect” (Matthew 5:48). The perfect standard for behavior is God Himself and the gospel exhorts all to be perfect as God is perfect.  This entails that in whatever ways one may possibly imitate God that he so do.  “Be ye therefore imitators of God, as beloved children” (Ephesians 5:1 ASV).  We would, therefore, do well to imitate God when it comes to forgiveness.

below is by    Dan Jenkins  at  https://churchofchristarticles.com/kingdom-lords-supper/ Jesus taught the Lord’s Supper would be part of the kingdom.  It was in the upper room that Jesus promised He would eat the Lord’s Supper with His followers when the kingdom came. Jesus said, “But I say to you, I will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on until that day when I drink it new with you in My Father’s kingdom” (Matt. 26:29). He and eighty-three other Divinely sent messengers had proclaimed that the kingdom was about to be established.  Now in the upper room, what Jesus said placed a time limit on the time it would come. He said, “With fervent desire I have desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer. For I say to you I will no longer eat of it until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God . . .  I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes” (Luke 22:15-18). His words clearly state that the cup with the fru...
