Our Church History literally begins with Jesus as He set forth the Early Church when He chose His twelve disciples and began His ministry.  James, the Lord's brother, with the disciples of the Early Church made an observation from Scripture in Acts 15:16-17 (quoting Amos 9:11,12) stating, "After this I will return and I will build again the Tabernacle of David which is fallen down and I will build again the ruins thereof, and I will set it up; that the residue of men might seek after the Lord and all the Gentiles, upon whom my  name is called, saith the Lord, who doeth all these things."
