As Christadelphians or Brothers and sisters in Christ we should be followers of the Nazarene master teacher Jeshua (Jesus Christ) and therefore as Jeshuaists (= followers of Jeshua) be diligent in the learning of the Holy Scriptures, like Jesus knew very well the ancient writings.
Jeshua or Jesus because of his knowledge of the Scriptures was able to reply in the right way. We too should learn from the bible and should know how to reply to a heretic.
On a basic level, as a follower of Jesus Christ we should walk in his footsteps and very well should know what we believe and why we believe it, and be able to explain and justify it to one who challenges us. Also our way of life should be witnessing of what we believe and where we stand for.
These holidays are a very good time to talk to others about our hope. Many Catholics and Protestants celebrating Easter, should give us several opportunities to talk about the death and resurrection of our master teacher Jesus. We should take every opportunity to show how Jesus is the way to God and why we are so happy and hopeful for what he has done for us and for the whole mankind.
These days we should also take the opportunity to show the reason for studying the Scriptures. We should also help others to come to understand and define our relationship with God and how they too should come into that restored relationship.
We have to show others that a full understanding of God is only possible through learning about the covenants that God has made with the world. By showing those around us that we enjoy the great honour that by putting his own will aside, to do the Will of God, Jesus his ransom offering brought salvation over us and by his resurrection out of the dead, we in him have a proof of what can happen to each of us. (Is that not a marvellous prospect?)

Very good to see your group of followers are throwing off the shackles of traditions with the baggage collected since the age of the Apostles. We need no relics, rules of tradition from mixed up covenants that are twisted by people for money, power, and control of the sheep. Embrace a simple gospel 1Corinthians 15, follow Jesus and we will see you all on that beautiful shore. Galatians 5:14 all the rest is religion. A lot of “Christians” are very disobedient children. We can warn them, try and teach them, but ultimately they are not ours to discipline or cover. Enjoy! https://saltlightministry.com/

Thank you very much for your reaction and link to your ministry.
All those who really follow the Nazarene master teacher Jeshua (Jesus Christ) should join hands in making his work known but also by proclaiming the Good News of the coming Kingdom of God, showing which way people have to follow and where they can find the real hope for a better future.

Lovely to hear from a self supported ministry devoted to being followers of Jesus Christ, also trying to keep to the commandments of God.
For much too long mankind has been lured in human doctrines and heathen traditions. Lovers of God should take every opportunity to show God-fearing people how we have to relate to the Most High and have to keep to His commandments and staying away from heathen traditions.

As you say we can only warn others and try to have their eyes opened for the truth. It is up to them to make the right choice. We only can hope we can guide them to the right path.
For sure they are not ours,nor may we judge them. Judging belongs to the son who is given the authority to judge the living and the dead.
