Want to restore New Testament power, form and function to the Church?
Then stop giving post-Biblical meanings to original New Testament words …
Based on post-Biblical presumptions, traditions and agendas.
For example, the predominant current meanings of English words like church, pastor, worship and tithe (to name just a few) …
Have nothing to do with their original meanings and use in the original language of Scripture when originally written.
Maybe that helps explain why “church” as we’ve now come to know it …
Looks nothing like “church” as the New Testament actually commands it.
Nope, not, nada …
It just ain’t there.
So let’s let Scripture once again stand authoritative as God actually intended …
Over all presumptions, traditions and agendas to the contrary.
Maybe then we’ll learn to actually be the church once again, as God commands …
With relational participatory gatherings where we minister one to another for the mutual building up of each other.
