The Restoration Movement Lesson 2

Mark Black Adult Minister

We continue in our church history lessons with The Restoration Movement. Following the Reformation Period, it was discovered that many denominations did not go far enough in reforming Church government and church worship. They did not call things by Bible names and held practices that were church traditions rather than Biblical instructions. Out of this period of revival came a movement to get back to the New Testament way of practicing Christianity and church governances. The Restoration Movement was a product of many men. Thomas and Alexander Campbell, James O'Kelly, Alias Smith, Abner Jones, Barton W. Stone, Racoon John Smith were all men who saw the divisions of the church and trying to get back to the Bible making the church one as found in the New Testament scriptures. Mark Black teaches this lesson on the Restoration of the Christ's Church.
