Daunted by the single conflict which leads to division and separation among Christians, Bishop Karl F. Smith asked the question, "today, will Jesus recognize the church He established since the Day of Pentecost?" Why are there so many different denominations amongst Christian worshippers? Apostolic Doctrine and Practice is Bishop Smith's bold and honest message about the state of God's church and how far Christians have drifted away from the original landmark of the faith once delivered unto the saints. After many years of serving in ministry, Bishop Smith has witnessed firsthand the division among Christians under the banner of denomination. Jesus said, a house divided against itself cannot stand. Is Christ divided? Smith challenges all Christians to be more attentive to the Savior's words and take heed to the work he entrusted into the hands of his apostles. So, with pen in hand, he embarked on a journey that would challenge the core of our theology. In these powerful pages are the words and scriptures Jesus lovingly laid on her heart. Words of reassurance, comfort, and hope. Words that would draw us back to the power of the Holy Spirit and heighten our senses about the importance of practicing the doctrine of the apostles of Jesus Christ.
