Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the history of the Christian Church during its first 350 years to describe and analyze the relationship between the laity and the clergy during that time period. Many people today believe that the laity should play a more prominent role in church governance and that the clergy should have less authority. This book examines that question historically, beginning with the Biblical evidence and working up to the Council of Chalcedon in 451 AD. The author explores what the Bible says about the role of the laity and the clergy, and how that role was understood and practiced in the early Church. The author argues that the early Church was governed by bishops, who were the successors to the apostles, and that the laity had no formal role in decision-making. However, the laity did have an important role to play in the life of the Church, and they were often consulted by the bishops on important matters. This book is a valuable resource for anyone who is interested in the history of the Christian Church or in the role of the laity in the Church today. It is a well-written and informative book that provides a wealth of information on this important topic. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781331601951_0
