Are You a Christian: Redefining Apostolic

What does it mean to be a Christian? What does it mean to be Apostolic? Are You A Christian joins a conversation that attempts to answer these questions. It appeals for a return to New Testament Christianity that harmonizes being a contemporary Apostolic believer with being a first century Christian. Author John Carroll argues that this return to Apostolic Christianity begins with clarifying the labels "Christian" and "Apostolic." The original Christianity of first century apostles must inform what it means for us to be Apostolic in the twenty-first century. Understanding the gospel-centered tension over circumcision and law keeping between certain Jewish and Gentile Christians in the first century provides a basis for understanding and addressing the issues we face.
