"The Witness"

by Editors | Category: General | Apr 1962

In the March issue of" The Witness," a magazine connected with Open Brethren, an article was published, described as "an objective statement," entitled "A summary of the origin, destinctive doctrine and practices of the Needed Truth Assemblies".

We do not, of course, acknowledge the term " Needed Truth Assemblies." As our readers are aware Needed Truth is a monthly magazine, and its adoption as a title for churches of God is wholly unjustifiable. The "summary" referred to above is unbalanced, incomplete and in some respects inaccurate. Its final paragraph contains an attack on ourselves which invalidates the claim that it is "an objective statement". A letter has been addressed to the editor of "The Witness" so we do not propose to comment further at the present juncture.

Most of our readers will be familiar with the truths which have been consistently set forth in "Needed Truth". Those desirous of examining in more detail what we believe is the New Testament pattern of gathering for God's people will find the following books and booklets helpful:

The search for the truth of God

Restoring the Paths

"A word to the believer "God's way of unity"

"A Holy Nation"

Unity or division, which ?"

"Churches of God in Apostolic Teaching " (Just published) "The One Thing for God"

All the above, and many other tracts and booklets, can be obtained from our Publishing Office.
