WHY DO PEOPLE CHANGE CHURCHES?

Release #: 79-05-04-04-R

This cassette tape contained the following message by John Robert Stevens.

April 29, 1979 Sunday Aft. Shiloh

The times of restoration have come and many of God’s people are locked in the traditional churches, both in doctrines and experiences. Churches should be more flexible to embrace a present truth that God is restoring, for the hungry will jump the man-made fences. The responsibility rests on the shepherds to lead the sheep on or lose them. People should never have to leave a church to get more of God. (51 min.)

THE POSITIVE SIDE OF DIVINE ORDER
August 20, 1978 Sunday A.M. Val.

STAND UP AND BE COUNTED
August 20, 1978 Sunday A.M. Ana.

WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT

Here are five basic differences between what God is doing now, and what has existed in contemporary Christianity. We strive for reality, not form. We seek divine commission, not human appointment. We follow divine direction, not human planning. It’s His Kingdom, not ours. We depend upon grace, not human striving. (7 min.)
