The Concept Of The Believers' Church: Addresses from the 1967 Louisville conference.

Plot

“A study of the nature of the church as it is understood in the New Testament. The author describes the church as being an identifiable, visible human community, whose nature is determined by its response to the grace of God in Christ. He defines who the people of God are, how they came to be, how they respond to God, and how they grow in Spirit. Chapter titles are: The People of God, The Body of Christ, The Holy Community, Believers, Disciples and Saints, and The Lord’s Ministers. There are eight pages of footnotes and a four-page bibliography listing recent writings on the nature of the church in the back of the book. This is another in the Conrad Grebel Lecture Series.”- Publisher
