so that `every matter may be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.' 18:16

Now that I found it and share it so often! But denomination people still ignore it!
6. If you study my lesson here from A-D carefully. You know it is all about their faith in the Lord is fake!
7. At the beginning the Lord added the saved into the church of Christ! Acts 2:47
All Jesus’ believers attend this one church! Where and how non-church of Christ started!?
Someone rebelled against God’s teaching and against their own parents’ example!
