Now, since we wish to find a church home, it would be
well to first search the Scriptures; probably the Bible will direct us
in this most important step."
CHAPTER SEVEN
WHAT SAY THE SCRIPTURES?
After dinner on that day, Robert and Mary Davis prayerfully and
reverently began a study on the New Testament church. They had not, as
we have intimated before, made any particular effort to ascertain
what the Scriptures had to say about this subject. It was not until
circumstances forced the issue upon them that any particular concern
about it entered into their minds. On this day, however, they began
a most earnest investigation of the matter. They had determined
beforehand to accept whatever the Scriptures had to say about it, and
to abide by their teachings.
"I have a concordance ready, Mary," said Robert, "so let us begin. May
God direct us in this Bible study."
"I shall bring the Scripture textbook and the Bible," said Mary. "I am
ready."
"I suppose that we may as well take the first text in the
concordance," said Robert.
