Great indeed, we confess, is the mystery of godliness: He was manifested in the flesh, vindicated by the Spirit, seen by angels, proclaimed among the nations, believed on in the world, taken up in glory.

~ 1st Timothy 3:16

Defining the “Ancient Antiochene Church of God” - What we call the “Antiochene Church” has a “traditional” history and a documented official history. Traditionally, Christians were first called “Christian” in ancient Antioch. The school of the first Antiochene Christians began in Antioch and its rival became the Alexandrian School in Egypt.

The Antiochene School has its roots in its first Bishops. Historically, Apostle Peter was the first Bishop of Antioch. We have studied the history of Ancient Antiochene Christians and trace our history with historical facts. All are invited to research our lectures and articles. On October 10th 2017 Eric William King founded the revival of Ancient Antiochene Theology. He also started two online information ministries. It is the hope that Christians will research the true history of the Christian faith and find accurate knowledge regarding what the First Church actually taught and believed in.

About TSW Ministry

This ministry and teachings (TSW - The Shepherds Way) only holds to the earliest church (proper) teachings, before the Great Schism which became the Roman Catholic Church & Greek Orthodox Church. We believe in the Divine Trinity and reject the praying to anybody else, body-spirit, other than God through our Lord Jesus Christ. It wasn’t until the Council of Trent in 1545 that the teaching on saintly intercession was officially laid down. We reject this council.

Most of our history stresses the first 451 years of the Christian Church when many of the early heresies were properly dealt with. We welcome you to study with us here and listen to all of our Nugget of Truth online lectures. We hold to and teach the Ancient Antiochene Christian Doctrine. 
May God richly bless you. ~ E.W.King

Is It the End . . . Or the Beginning of Life?

 



Is It the End . . . Or the Beginning of Life?


by Rick Gregory

His Name is Rich. I sit beside his bed, his body a shell, worn out after 97 years. He’s swaddled in blankets, but still cold - his body unable to keep him warm. We’re at that holy place where temporal meets eternal. He’s dying and though he knows it, I wonder if he’s accepted it. He mumbles that his feet, elevated above his heart to keep from swelling, wrapped in wool socks, feel like weights and he groans, “Take them off!” His breathing shallows as his lungs begin filling with fluid; every breath reminds me how desperately we cling to this world, even as time and disease yank it away.

 Here is where I’ve seen one of the strongest men I know made inconceivably vulnerable and dependent. But his very frailty becomes the canvas on which God paints His true story of love, grace and power. This is where 2 Corinthians 12:9 (NIV) speaks loudest; “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” It isn’t the grand gestures on our part that demonstrate big love. It is the simple majesty of presence. Of being. Of watching, listening, where being outperforms doing.

As our lives wind down, we can’t help but see the Psalmist’s truth, we are “fearfully and wonderfully made.” Our bodies, the skin we wear get broken by time and experience, but our spirit, anchored in Christ, conquers. When Rich breathes his last breath, it will be a celebration of release into the hands of the One Who gave him his first breath. Darkness, disease and weakness will be banished, beaten. And we, followers of Jesus, are called to celebrate that exchange with courage and thankfulness that Rich is again strong, whole and completely healed.

This is the place where eternity touches time. Where mortal takes on immortal. Where the promises of God are never more desperately needed. Where Jesus reminds us, “When everything is ready, I’ll come and get you.” (Jn 14:3 NLT)
