The Church Law of Christ

The local Bible Camp continued for a second night at the Martinez home. The topic was the Church Law of Christ from Matt. 18. Walt asked Milton if he was willing to present the prepared Power Point presentation and conduct the discussion. He agreed. He and Paulus sat huddled over the laptop presentation for over an hour during the afternoon talking though the presentation and its meaning. Approximately 15 people were present. Milton appeared comfortable in his assignment.

The presentation resulted in a lengthy and constructive discussion about the steps of the Church Law and its need in God's kingdom. Without its use a congregation will crumble. Love will remain broken. The students understood that the "law" was a "law of love" for the undying soul of all involved. Walt asked what does "the church" mean in the referenced text as related to Riobamba? Milton correctly answered by pointing to the believers in the room.

 

Some thought it may have been the first time the believers from Riobamba had studied the Church Law text. Milton later stated he very much enjoyed the discussion and thought that the use of Power Point helps everyone to remain attentive. He suggested it continue to be used by the ministers on following trips.
