It was not until the third century that "clergy" was employed to designate a limited number of persons who functioned in the Christian assemblies.

Most professing Christians do not realize that the central concepts and practices associated with what we call 'church' are not rooted in the New Testament, but in patterns established in the post-apostolic age. Read the full article at https://t.co/sLIyl67RHZ #church

@KyleYoakum Go to https://t.co/wN0D4YK5qc for all the details and excommunications. This isn't someone you want to deem as credible.

@KyleYoakum Hi Kyle. Don't know how to reach you other than here, but I saw your note on Bart's page. Jim Wright/plumbline faith is a long time abuser who was excommunicated by 35 leaders. He's a liar who smears people including me. I'm posting the details in a coment below this.

[Jon Zens @JonZens]

@PlumblineFaith @BartonBreen For anyone reading this, Jim Wright's outlandish allegations were debunked 12 years ago. He is a longtime abuser of his ex wife, children (now adults) & excommunicated multiple times. https://t.co/uA8QCuUQRA and https://t.co/sewdcp3heb including letters from me.

The early Christians gave, but they didn't tithe. See https://t.co/iKHYzqvxnU

#2 The blessings of His life flowing through many parts were traded for weekly sermons coming from one part. Paul said, "each one of you has," but tradition contradicts and says, "be ears in pews to hear a mouth in the pulpit."

[Jon Zens @JonZens]

#1 "What happens in a 1 Cor 14 style gathering?" The point is such meetings directed by Jesus are not predictable, not in a box. It's like having a feast with each person bringing some portion of Him to the table. It is like a symphony with each part contributing to the whole.

@ReKnewOrg @greg_boyd @thatdankent Greg, I think you need to dig deeper into the "science" issue. Are you aware that on Oct 20 2020 the FDA was given a list of adverse vaxx reactions (death was #13) by its own people and they ignored the report and proceeded to release the shots publicly in Dec?

The enmity between religion and revelation is simple: religion goes up, revelation comes down. Central to the revelation of Abraham's, Isaac's, Jacob's and Jesus' God, is that He descends to humans. In no way or circumstances can we ascend to God, even slightly. Jacques Ellul
