Reformation Society of Indiana
Fall Conference
Friday - Saturday, November 16-17, 2012
Second Reformed Presbyterian Church
Indianapolis, Indiana
In 1 Corinthians 2:2, the apostle Paul declares to the saints in Corinth, “For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.” With these words, Paul reminds the church of the centrality and supremacy of Jesus Christ. There is nothing more devastating to the life and mission of the church, and to the individual Christian for that matter, than being distracted from this vital truth. Despite acknowledging the reality of this truth, the church often veers off course and becomes consumed with tertiary matters or attempts to add something to the completed work of Christ. Given this tendency, it is important for Christians to be continually reminded of the centrality and supremacy of Jesus Christ. The goal of this conference is to serve as such a reminder.http://www.alliancenet.org/CC_Content_Page/0,,PTID307086_CHID798774_CIID,00.html
