What do the Followers of Jesus Ministries (1957) believe?

The expanded revised version What we as followers of Jesus believe Sound advice would be to always approach the Bible in an unprejudiced, open-minded way and so that God can lead you through His Spirit. Why is this necessary? Because a spirit of error has gone forth into the world contaminating the mind of even those who are sincerely working for the Lord. Guard especially against the Father Mother Child analogies for this was the exact reason why this triad worship had played such a huge role in Christendom since the early days of the apostles' ministry. We can only bring the Da Vinci Code to mind should we want to scratch on the surface of this type of apostate impact. Fact is: God sent His Son into the world wedging Him, Jesus, in as go-between and right hand, that is between God and man! The Son therefore takes centre-stage ALWAYS! unless we want to follow pagan, even Hinduistic ideas of a three-in-one God which may sound good to many yet eventually elicits adaptation of apostolic teachings in order to accommodate apostate ideas! (with specific reference to the Hindu Trimurti).

We can only reach God Most High in and through Jesus the eternal Son of God! Let us therefore remain objective not being swayed by what may sound right yet leading us away from Scriptural Truth! With reference to Torah, the Jewish kingdoms (BCE): although both the Northern and Southern Kingdoms fell because of the peoples' wickedness, at least some among them must have clung to their traditions and the oral tradition has always played a huge role in Jewish tradition. We know that datings of both the Old and New Covenant texts must always have to be kept in mind - the compilation of both the Scriptures etc. How and when the Old Testament was assembled could not be dealt with in this document properly and the same goes for the NT text
