Description
This study deals with nearly every aspect of church polity and life including the meaning of the church, the proper constitution of the church, the importance of the church, biblical descriptions of a New Testament church (expository studies of Acts 2:36-42; 13:1-4; Romans 15:14; 1 Corinthians 5:6-8; Colossians 1:25-28; 1 Thessalonians 1:8-10; 1 Timothy 3:15; Revelation 1:10-20), the Church as a body (expository study of Ephesians 4:7-16), church membership, the pastor, church members’ relationship to pastors, other ministry-gifted men, the deacon, ordination, church ordinances, church discipline, the church as headquarters for Christ’s Great Commission, and church covenants.
The studies are very practical, dealing with questions such as the following:
What are the characteristics of a New Testament church What is the church as a mystery? Can a church require members to be faithful? Are there apostles and prophets in the churches today? What do the terms “pastor,” “elder,” and “bishop” mean? How many pastors should a church have? How does a man know if he is called to be a pastor? Why are the standards for pastors so high? Does the Bible say anything about the pastor’s wife? What is the Bible’s teaching about supporting pastors? What is a church’s responsibility toward the pastor? What authority does the pastor have? Does it have any limit? How can a church discipline a pastor?
