Synopsis
Excerpt from The Works of John Owen, D.D, Vol. 16
In order, therefore, unto the completing this great and mystical body, Christ hath his particular visible churches and assemblies in this world; wherein he hath ordained ordinances and appointed Officers for the forementioned glorious ends and purposes.
There is no other sort of visible church Of Christ organized, the subject Of the aforesaid institutions spoken of, but a particular church or congregation (either in the Old or New Testament), where all the members thereof do ordinarily meet together in one place to hold communion one with another in some one or more great ordinances of Christ. The first churches were economic, when the worship of God was solemnly performed in the large families of the antediluvian and post diluvian patriarchs, where, no doubt, all frequently assembled to the sacrifices as then offered, and other parts Of worship then in use.
