Articles of religion or confessions of faith are used to inform others of what a person, a church or society believe with respect to religious beliefs. Some churches restrict membership to those who will subscribe to their articles of religion. One of the problems that this brings is that there comes a time when a new believer cannot, in conscience, subscribe to a tenet of belief that they do not understand.

Articles of religion or confessions of faith are used to inform others of what a person, a church or society believe with respect to religious beliefs. Some churches restrict membership to those who will subscribe to their articles of religion. One of the problems that this brings is that there comes a time when a new believer cannot, in conscience, subscribe to a tenet of belief that they do not understand. It may be the article is badly worded or poorly written, or may in fact be in error. In which case, a new believer could not in conscience subscribe to something they do not understand. This did not happen in the early days of the Christian church, as there was Apostolic authority to settle matters of religious differences. Those whom the Lord added to the church were such as should be saved, and they did not have to subscribed to a written confession of faith like those we are about to look at in a moment. Even the Apostles were growing in knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ, just as we do today. Peter is an example of an Apostle was in error whom Paul had to withstand to the face, over matters of doctrine and practice. 1 Galatians 2.7.

Autorenporträt
Foreword Dr Philip Fleming By Dr Philip Fleming MA. BA, Bch. FRCPsych. DPM "Converted on LSD Trip" was the first title of this book and now republished for a wider audience. This book, the personal testament of David Clarke, in an autobiographical style. It charts his life, which became one of criminality and drug taking though an experience in 1970 of finding God whilst under the influence of LSD. Cynics may say that this was just an effect of drugs, but it is clear that the experience changed his life. Later when in court facing charges he admitted to many other crimes and was fortunate in receiving three years conditional discharge and not a prison sentence. Since then, David has combined his work as a lecturer in electronics with his mission of spreading the word of God. This is a scrupulously honest book, recording both the difficulties he has faced as well as the successes in his life since 1970. A continuing worry is the fat of his brother, currently serving a long prison sentence in a Philippine jail, who himself has recently found God. "This is an inspiring story of a life that has been turned from crime to a positive account and may be of help to others who find themselves directionless and involved in crime and drug misuse". Dr. Philip M. Fleming. MA. BA, Bch. FRCPsych. DPM. Consultant Psychiatrist with special responsibility for drug and alcohol misuse
