Relating to Other Congregations in the Ancient New Way

Relating to Other Congregations in the Ancient New Way--Some of the early Restoration Movement pioneers used to say, "We are Christians only, but not the only Christians."  We affirm that just as we are imperfect in our understanding (1 Corinthians 13), other believers are as well.  We want to love other followers of Jesus who affirm the Lordship of Christ and be open to fellowship, worship, and serve with them.  Jesus prayed for all believers to be one (John 17) and Paul commanded that the church pray for all believers everywhere (Ephesians 6).
