Yet another Campbellite "Restoration Movement" (Church of Christ) splinter religious sect has arisen on the scene led by Alexander Campbell follower Kip McKean. What's going on with this new, aggressive group of Campbellites who believe water baptism & doing good works will earn them a way into heaven? Larry Wessels, director of Christian Answers of Austin, Texas/ Christian Debater (YouTube channel: CANSWERSTV; websites: BIBLEQUERY.ORG, HISTORYCART.COM & MUSLIMHOPE.COM) is joined in studio by Bob L. Ross, director of Pilgrim Publications (website: PILGRIMPUBLICATIONS.COM) & author of the books, "Campbellism: Its History & Heresies," "Acts 2:38 & Baptismal Remission," & "The Restoration Movement" to discuss this new "works for salvation" Campbellism system. This is part 2 in a 2 part series.
The "main-line" Church of Christ developed from an original "reformation" / "unity" effort inaugurated by Thomas Campbell in 1809. The original group formed "The Christian Association of Washington, Pennsylvania" & at first sought "communion" with the same Presbyterian Church Synod which had earlier "censured" Thomas Campbell for his diversions.
After being spurned by the Presbyterians, the "Christian Association" decided to "assume the character of an independent Church," & this was accomplished on May 4, 1811 at Brush Run. A short time later, under the leadership of Alexander Campbell, the son of Thomas, the majority of the small church arranged for immersion in water June 12, 1812, & the act was performed for seven members by a Baptist minister, Matthias Luce, in Buffalo Creek.
