Default Blending Bros Turning Their Backs on Church History

Nigel Tomes: four articles that have been irresponsibly ignored and unaddressed by the blending brothers, in their path of deviation in the Local Churches

As earnest seeking believers, we need to not only have a sound knowledge of the Bible, but also of the history contained therein and in subsequent writings that record a history of the apostles and early Christians. Further, books such as Miller's Church History or The Pilgrim Church cover church history into the 20th century, that must be explored.

A reason that the Lord has a way for seeking or rejected saints to go on with Him on a right Path today is because of the training that brothers like David Canfield, Nigel Tomes, and Dave Shields have had on church history in the Midwest and Great Lakes area churches. Canfield did not fall for the LSM modus operandi of invading localities and setting up shop for LSM, and he wrote accordingly to the saints and elders in Chicago.

In the following links, Nigel Tomes gives apropriate, responsible accounts of church history, past and present, as local church history is tied to church history in general, and to the history and the teachings of the Bible, Old Testament and New.

In a word, if we take lightly the knowledge of the Bible and church history, including that of the local churches, we, (especially those in the leadership) will sooner or later come off the tracks and look very foolish in doing so, as has surely been the case with leaders today in the Local Churches. They have turned their backs on church history and are busy about carrying out an agenda. With blinders on, they will not listen to, or heed, sound advice and fellowship, as they continue in an unrepentant state down a path of deviation. Existing in a bubble, they behave as if they could not be, or should not be, touched by anyone.

May all the saints, especially perhaps the young people in the Local Churches, listen to responsible fellowship and respond honestly in their heart to take care of the churches both now and in the future, according to truth. Don't live your life in a bubble, thinking you can never be wrong, since God's people throughout time have always needed repentance. By learning church history, we can correct ourselves and be brought back to the right path, according to God, and according to His word.
