John Newmeyer (brother) - irrefutable intelligence ------------------------ The Essence of Christian Practice An essay by John Newmeyer, Ph.D. The community of believers should elect a godly and articulate person as their minister. On Sunday morning, the believers should gather in their unadorned house of worship, to hear a sermon based mostly upon the four Gospels, alternating with hymns sung by all. This public affirmation of faith is specifically intended to help the believers dedicate themselves to lives of virtue and good works, inspired by the glorious example of our Savior. The ministers other duties are threefold: to counsel individuals toward a better Christian life; to study diligently Gospel—based commentaries on virtue and grace; and to officiate at ceremonies of baptism, confirmation, marriage, burial, and the installation of his / her successor; In this manner, the community can be spared the corruptions of dogma, idolatry, hierarchy, and sophistry.
