The early church was very effective - impacting the world with its ministry and with the power of God. In this book, the author discusses this effectiveness, which he believes can be regained if we follow the New Testament pattern of the church.He concentrates on some basic yet important teachings taken from the Scriptures concerning the church of the Living God; that he believes if followed, will greatly transform our churches and make believers much more effective in this world. This book presents the church to its readers in simple layman terms that all may be part of this glorious church that Christ is building. There are a lot of misconceptions concerning the Church and the State. Consequently, this topic is addressed in this book, taking its principles from the Scriptures. The church has been given the great task of making disciples in a hostile world. How can this happen? This book deals with the 'how' of making disciples. Both in the Old and New Testaments, we see God disciplining His people - members as well as leaders. Yet, many churches do not discipline, their members nor their leaders. This book shows that there must be discipline in the church, for the church to be effective. The author discusses how discipline should be administered and the reasons for administering discipline. This book also addresses the importance of church membership and gives Biblical reasons for it; as well as the importance of accountability in the church. It deals with some controversial offices of the church such as apostles and prophets. Some people now make a big quarrel about not attending church on certain days; the writer gives Biblical proofs for going to church on Sunday, and places much emphasis on having the presence of God in the life of the church. As a matter of fact, the author believes that if God is not in us, we are not of God. It also shows that those who belong to the true church are members of the Body of Christ. Therefore, God’s people must unite to be effective in carrying out His mandate.
