This Christian Internet site seeks to present articles that reflect Bible views on both doctrinal and practical areas of discipleship. These articles are written in a clear and simple style, supported by abundant Scripture, so the Lord can use His Word to tell His own story.
Let us explain about our Mennonite church background. The Mennonites came out of the Dutch and Swiss state churches during the Reformation. We had a deep desire to return to a Christ and Scripture-centered Faith. Our approach was to start with the Gospels and then interpret the Epistles in light of Christ's teachings and the issues in the early church. We seek to follow all the scriptural teachings and not try to explain always those that don't "fit" into the modern world.
These Bible-practicing Christians were first tagged with the Anabaptist name in Switzerland because they rebaptized those who had been baptized as infants or as unbelievers. This allowed the state to persecute them and put the rebaptized believers to death under an A.D. 529 Roman law. These disciples never used the term Anabaptist themselves, and they objected to the term because of the criminal character associated with it. They would have preferred to be called Brethren or Bible Christians, but their enemies' derogatory nickname stuck. Later some of them were called Mennonites after a prominent servant in this restored church, Menno Simons.
We do not wish to give the impression that this site is only denominational in nature. We recognize that no denomination is fully faithful to the Bible's teaching. What is important is our goal to have a clear, biblically oriented writing style and seek to hold to all the Bible's New Testament teachings. Of course, since this is a developing site, at this point we do not cover all the Scripture's teaching. At present our study centers on Scripture, Redemption, and the Church. Near the bottom of this page, you can find two sister sites that cover more areas of doctrine and practice.
Our mission is to present sound Bible teachings on Christian doctrine and practices. To do this we follow sound principles of Interpretation and the recognize the New Testament is God's final revelation.

The following four studies build a case for biblical Christianity. We plan to add more studies.
