Jesus preached the gospel of the kingdom and commissioned His disciples
to go into all the world and bare its glad tidings. The
intervening years witnessed the rise of ecclesiastical and civil powers
that manipulated the gospel message for their own interests. These
intrigues, combined with apathy and ignorance, clouded salvation's good
news and confine it to the vacillating decisions decreed by bishop's
councils.
Fortunately, the Reformation returned believers to the
Bible, where the words of Jesus and His apostles provide guidance.
More recently, the Restoration renewed the spiritual power and authority
that characterized the apostolic church and adorned its ministers.
