Methodist Church: I understand in your church you have tithing, fast offering, fast days, and not all your apostles appoint officers in your church. Can you produce for me in the New Testament where these practices were found in the early church?
Missionaries: I certainly will. For tithing, read Matt. 25:23 and you will find that Christ taught the principle. For membership appointing leaders, (and not apostles appointing them), read Acts 6, where the seven were chosen by the congregation, and for fast offerings try 1 Cor. 16:2. These were all doctrines of the early church. There are so many scriptures on this subject that it would waste our time to show them to you.
