Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the complex and contentious subject of Church governance, exploring the relationship between individual congregations and larger governing bodies. The author meticulously examines the history of Church structure, drawing parallels between the practices of the early Christian Church and the Jewish community. The book engages in a detailed analysis of Scripture and the writings of early Church Fathers, offering insights into the principles of both congregational autonomy and hierarchical authority within the Church. The author's deep knowledge of both the historical and theological contexts of Church governance is evident throughout the book, which ultimately presents a compelling argument for a balanced approach that recognizes the essential role of both local congregations and broader ecclesiastical structures in maintaining unity and order within the Church. Ultimately, this book provides a valuable contribution to the ongoing dialogue concerning the governance of the Church, offering a framework for understanding the interplay of authority and autonomy in its diverse expressions throughout history.
