Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book by the author examines the concept of the church in the New Testament. It begins by analyzing the Greek word for "church" and concluding that it typically signified a congregation or assembly. The author then explores whether Christ established a precise form of church government, concluding that there are at least some general outlines of church organization and government marked out by the pen of inspiration. One of the principles the author emphasizes is that, in the days of the apostles, churches were all voluntary associations and that every church had its covenant or common articles of belief. The author goes on to establish the independence and mutual fellowship of churches, explaining that while the churches planted by the apostles maintained an intimate and holy fellowship with each other, they were manifestally independent one of another so far as jurisdiction and authority were concerned.
