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 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 like God commands …
With relational, participatory ministry one to another for the mutual building up of each other once again.
