| Foundation Truth, Number 18 (Summer 2007) | Timeless Truths Publications, 2007 | Church | |
Immediately I got the money, the Lord's voice again came to me saying: "Send most of the money to your family." Whenever the Lord speaks, there is a finality and so joyous a conviction that it cannot be easily mistaken. | ||

| Foundation Truth, Number 29 (Winter 2012) | Timeless Truths Publications, 2011 | Church | |
...a man is still a man... still just an earthen vessel.... When God has finished beating the mountains small with a worm, then that worm is still a worm—a worm used of God.... "When the work of the Lord is done right, there is no room for the flesh to glory." | ||

| Foundation Truth, Number 2 (Spring/Summer 2000) | Timeless Truths Publications, 2000 | Church | |
The unity that Paul and Apollos had was not a negotiated one.... The essence of that unity came from each being in unity with God. This produced a oneness in Him that did not depend on careful posturing and positioning with each other. | ||

| Having a Spiritual Congregation | Charles E. Orr | Church | |

| How I Found the Church of God | Mark P. Spinks, 2008 | Church | |

| Musical Instruments and Worship | Archie Souder | Church | |
This subject of music in the church is surely a spiritual subject. Now, dear reader, get your Bible out before you read any farther, as this question can only be answered by the Word of God. I am going to deal wholly with God's Word. | ||

The church is the body of Christ. And being the body of Christ, it necessarily includes all His members. Therefore to call an earthly building the church is ridiculous, and to call an organized division the church is subverting the truth. | ||
