| | Old Believers |
 | | The priestless Old Believers were strongly represented in the provinces of Novgorod and Pskov, in Pomorye, Estonia, Livonia, Courland and the Northern and Western regions of the Grand Duchy, whereas the priestly Old Believers predominated in Central and Southern Russia and in the Eastern part of the Commonwealth. |  | | Old Believers began to settle in Vetka, which was the property of a nobleman called Halecki, about 1685, as Empress Sophia and Patriarch Joachim began to use military force against the Old Believers in the region of Starodub, a Russian town some 15 km from Vetka. |  | | About 1685, Old Believers began to settle in Vetka, near Gomel’ (in the province of Minsk), which later on, in the first half of the 18th century, was to become one of the important religious centres of priestly Old Believers in the Grand Duchy. |

| | Manuscript Study: Are Jewish Believers Obliged To Keep The Sabbath? |
 | | But again, there is no command for Jewish believers to observe the Sabbath, either as a day of rest or a day of worship, nor is there a single example in the Book of Acts of any local church, Jewish or Gentile, holding their meetings on the Sabbath. |  | | Many Israeli believers make aliyah to Israel the way of maintaining Jewish identity, and many of them are not particularly inspired by Jewish believers who choose to remain with "the fleshpots of America," rather than be willing to suffer the hardships of aliyah to Israel. |  | | Jewish believers who insist on making Sabbath keeping mandatory are forced to make many adjustments in their practice, and often such adjustments actually violate the Law of Moses rather than keep it. |

| | Priesthood according to |
 | | John Calvin interpreted the priesthood of all believers in terms of the church's threefold participation in Christ's prophetic, kingly and priestly ministry. |  | | The priesthood of all believers was a cardinal principle of the Reformation of the 16th century. |  | | The priesthood of believers is not a prerogative on which we can rest; it is a commission which sends us forth into the world to exercise a priestly ministry not for ourselves, but for others--"the outsiders," not instead of Christ, but for the sake of Christ and at His behest. |

 | | The munafiq, who pretend to be believers in order to benefit from the fortune of the believers, abandon the believers in a slightest moment of difficulty and side with the adversaries of the believers. |  | | However, although the munafiq seems to believe in Allah and worship Him, he is discriminated from the believers by his slack conduct in earning the good pleasure of Allah. |  | | The munafiq are referred to in many verses of the Quran, and the believers are warned against them. |

| | Mission Frontiers April 2000 - Ten Common Factors in a CPM |
 | | Even when baptisms are delayed, new believers are expected to become witnesses immediately; these new disciples immediately become disciplers of others and even church planters. |  | | Rather than waiting for new believers to prove themselves worthy of leadership, missionaries begin by drawing new believers into leadership roles through participative Bible studies and mentoring pastors from behind the scenes. |  | | Missionaries in CPMs have recognized this and urged new believers to follow the web of their own family relationships to draw new believers into the community of faith (see Acts 16:31-32). |

| | The Priesthood of All Believers: A Sermon on Leviticus 8:1-3 by Coty Pinckney |
 | | As we will see, to use the doctrine of the priesthood of all believers as a license to go out and be a lone ranger, interpreting the Bible on one’s own, living your version of the Christian life on your own, is far, far away from the biblical model of priest. |  | | The idea that the office of priest is shared among a large number of believers did not begin with the New Testament. |  | | So all believers are saints; all believers are priests; all believers need priests. |

| | James Luther Adams and the Priesthood of all Believers |
 | | Re-defining "the priesthood of all believers" as "radical laicism" is also the worst of all possible translations when comparing it with the teachings of the most radical christian reformer yet produced, George Fox, founder of the Society of Friends, commonly known as the Quakers. |  | | Attaining the priesthood of all believers by laicizing all members of a religious persuasion is to abolish all that is special to the priesthood, including the superior title. |  | | Another way of demonstrating the inappropriateness of using "radical laicism" as a synonym for "the priesthood of all believers" is to replace the lay::priest dichotomy with another to test whether adding "radical" in front of an inferior class title is able to lift it to equality of a higher class. |

 | | Since we are to serve God daily as priests, the priesthood of all believers should not be relegated to the status of a timeworn theological slogan. |  | | God has called all believers, without exception, to be His royal priests-- from the dockworker to the doctor, from the messenger to the manger, from the educator to the executive. |  | | Properly understood, the priesthood of all believers teaches us that all believers are priests, no matter what their vocation -- their calling -- in life might be. |

| | Old Believers in Alaska by Vitali Vitaliev Travel Reviews from Travel Intelligence |
 | | Like their life-style and customs, the Old Believers' mother tongue was frozen in the time warp of 1917-1920, when their grandparents, with bags and baggage and under cover of darkness, crossed the Russian-Chinese border into Manchuria. |  | | It was my first glimpse of Nikolaevsk residents, the Russian Old Believers: a much-persecuted and therefore extremely reclusive religious group, who first came to Alaska in 1960s. |  | | Old Believers in Alaska by Vitali Vitaliev |

| | Old Testament Believers and New Testament Christians |
 | | It is illegitimate to transpose "salvation" to all the Jewish believers of the Old Testament based on an alleged "unconditional promise and covenant" to Abraham, prior to and apart from the historic revelation and redemptive activity of Jesus Christ the Savior. |  | | Nowhere in Scripture are the Old Testament believers said to have "passed from death to life," to have been "regenerated," to have been "born again," or to have participated in the dynamic of the indwelling life of the risen Lord Jesus. |  | | The activity of the Spirit of God to inspire and energize a particular activity in the Old Testament believers is not equivalent to the indwelling activity of the Spirit of Christ in Christians in the new covenant. |

| | Old Believers - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Old Believer churches are currently restored in Russia, although Old Believers (unlike the nearly official mainstream Orthodoxy) are facing many difficulties in claiming their restitution rights for their churches. |  | | However, Old Believers became the dominant denomination in many regions; among them were Pomorye (Arkhangelsk region), Guslitsy, Kursk region, Urals, Siberia etc. By the 1910s, about 25% of the population in Russia said that they belonged to one of the Old Believer branches (census data). |  | | Despite the fact that the Old Believers movement was created as a reaction to a reform, not as a 'reform' itself, the views and the philosophy of the movement in some aspects strongly resemble Protestant philosophy (mainly Amish, Hutterites, Mennonites and some other 'strict' denominations). |

| | Imminent is not the Same as Immediate |
 | | The Thessalonian believers were good students of the Word and had digested these truths with thankfulness, but apparently the subject of Christians who die before the return of the Lord had either not been covered or had been misunderstood. |  | | In chapter 5 the apostle Paul further emphasized the imminence of the Rapture by encouraging the Thessalonian believers with the truth that they were sons of light and not sons of night and darkness (5:5). |  | | Evidently the Thessalonian believers were concerned that the death of believers before the return of the Lord might cause them to lose out on all opportunities to share in the glorious reign of Christ. |

| | Old Believer History and Tradition |
 | | The Old Believers were united in their hostility toward the Russian state, which supported the Nikonian reforms and persecuted those who, under the banner of the old faith, opposed the new order in the church and the secular administration. |  | | For some Old Believers, the defense of the old liturgy and traditional culture was a matter of primary importance; for all, the old ritual was at least a badge of identification and a unifying slogan. |  | | In fact, some Old Believers claim that they or acquaintances of theirs were jailed for their attempted contacts with the British Consulate in Hong Kong, on orders from the local Russian consulates in Harbin or Kuldja. |
