Pioneer Church in the Oconee Territory A Historical Synopsis of Antioch Christian Church

The purpose of this church shall be as revealed in the New Testament, to win people to faith in Jesus Christ and commit them actively to the church, to help them to grow in the grace and knowledge of Christ that increasingly they may know and do His will, and to work for the unity of all Christians and with them engage in the common task of building the kingdom of God. A Pioneer Church in the Oconee Territory will take you on a journey from the early settlement of Mannakin Town, Virginia, to the Scull Shoals Community on the east bank of the Oconee River in northern Georgia. This journey was actually made by the early ancestors of the Antioch Christian Church during the Oconee Indian Wars and at the beginning of the American Restoration Movement. Today Antioch Christian Church is still the location of Scull Shoals voting precinct. Anyone who loves American history, genealogy, and has an interest in the early association between church and state will find A Pioneer Church in the Oconee Territory an invaluable reference. It contains facts of ?the way it was? as far back as 1793 and the way life in America transpired within rural Georgia.Lavender, Billy is the author of 'Pioneer Church in the Oconee Territory A Historical Synopsis of Antioch Christian Church', published 2005 under ISBN 9780595350209 and ISBN 0595350208.
