“Must” Is Not An OptionBy Steven F. DeatonThe book of Acts is a history of the early church. It traces it from the beginning in Acts 2 to Paul’s imprisonment in chapter 28. While it mainly focuses on the work of two apostles, Peter and Paul, it is more than just an account of their lives.

This doctrine, however, does not stand when examined in light of God’s Word. Rather that a soul-saving doctrine, faith only damns man...Full Article Baptism? Who Needs Baptism?By Steven F. DeatonNot everyone needs to be baptized. Babies do not need to be baptized; neither do those who are mentally handicap. Those who have already been scripturally baptized do not need to do it again.
