The merit of Jesus, our reward

The Bible talks about reward, but none of us can do anything to earn this reward. So how does this fit together? It’s actually very simple: the merit is Jesus’ alone. And He shares out the reward to those who follow Him. Thoughts from a divine service by the Chief Apostle.

When the form of divine service changed

A church? Well, it was rather two centres with very different cultures. One man brought the two ends together and laid many additional foundations. Friedrich Wilhelm Menkhoff was called as an Apostle 150 years ago.

Thinking, feeling, and speaking clearly

Clarify things between the two of you, just you and God, openly and honestly without any go-betweens. You will find what you have lost. This is the invitation the Chief Apostle extended recently, not because he is paid to do it, but out of love.

Walking the path together

It began with positive steps towards one another that developed into a common path forward. Much has happened since the ecumenical work of the New Apostolic Church started 22 years ago. One of the initiators who has done a lot of work in this area has now stepped down.
