Excerpt from The Origin and Principles of the Christians
This is one of a series of booklets prepared and issued under the direction of the Secretary for Department of Publishing of The General Convention of The Christian Church, that the members of our churches and Sunday-schools may be well informed as to the history and distinctive principles of
The Christian Church which accepts and proclaims:
The Lord Jesus Christ as the head of the church.
Christian our only name.
The Bible our rule of faith and practice.
Individual interpretation of the Scriptures, the right and duty of all.
Christian character the test of fellowship.
The union of all the followers of Christ, to the end that the world may believe.
Several of the booklets are from the pen of John Franklin Burnett, D. D., who has given many years of his life to research and investigation of the subjects he presents. Others are by men of outstanding ability who have given many years of service in the Christian Church. They will present the distinctive principles of the Christian church as essentials in Christian life and the basis for church unity.
