    Whilst the rest of the West was building universities, hospitals, libraries and cathedrals America was at the frontier stage where charlatan preachers took advantage of the gullible. That is why virtually all the creation and intelligent design sects and cults are American showing they are in fact not Christian but Fundamentalists!

    The Restoration Movement of Barton Stone, Walter Scott, Thomas Campbell and Alexander Campbell sought to "restore" New Testament practice of calling Bible things by Bible names, doing Bible things in Bible ways, and respecting silence in scripture.  Leroy Garrett wrote his book "The Stone-Campbell Movement" about it, and is accurate on many points.

    Maybe, but the key to understand is that their doctrines lead to hell because they teach works for salvation.  So get away from them.  Water baptism cannot get anyone into heaven, water baptism is not required to get into heaven, and water baptism cannot be added to what gets a person into heaven.  See 1 Corinthians 1:17.  To get into heaven, believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, without adding any of your own works. See Romans 4:5.  once you are saved, then you can be water baptized.  But against, don't add water baptism or any works to getting into heaven.

    Here is the truth: The Lord Jesus Christ is God. Nobody can be good enough to avoid hell. The truth is that death leads to immediate heaven or hell, depending only on whether the person believed on the Lord Jesus Christ, or not. The truth is that the Lord Jesus Christ loves you and wants to bless your life freely :) Most of all, Jesus wants you with Him forever, and not in hell. It is too late to be saved, after death.

    Believing on the Lord Jesus Christ means being forgiven all sins past and future and means going to heaven. The truth is that every belief except one will lead to eternal torment in the lake of fire for every person. Because nothing pays for our sins except the death and blood of Jesus, the sacrifice of Jesus that is already accomplished by Him . Jesus loves you! The truth is that the Lord Jesus Christ is God, and Jesus died on the cross to pay for all of our sins in full, and then Jesus was buried, and then Jesus resurrected from the dead. Nothing else pays for our sins, not works, not deeds, not religions. So the only way to heaven and to avoid hell, is by believing on Jesus for eternal life (John 6:47), without adding any of your own works (Romans 4:5). Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ to take you to heaven, and you will be in heaven, no matter what, guaranteed. That easy, thanks to Jesus! Tell Jesus that you thank Him that you will be with Him in heaven
