Download or read book The Birth of the Church A Study of the Ecclesia written by Ron McRay and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-02-08 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is the "ecclesia"? It is the word often translated "church" in the Bible. This book is a study of what the ecclesia really is or isn't. Today's view and understanding of church is much different than what the Bible taught about the ecclesia. The ecclesia was more of a community of believers in Christ. It was a living organism rather than a building, rules, ordinances, mandates and hierarchy.Ron McRay has written over 40 books on different Bible subjects. He often, as he does in this book, brings a different light and way of looking at key scriptures on subjects that are common to most Christians. By reading the scriptures without the pre-formed ideas taught in most churches it is obvious that the text does not necessarily say what is commonly thought.A little bit of attention to the words of Scripture is often all that is needed to see a very different picture or story than our traditions teach.Traditions, such as the teaching of church, often take on a meaning and directive contrary to the Bible. Many of the traditions observed by many today have no origin or basis in scripture. If you are even slightly curious about church history or tradition you will enjoy reading and learning from this book. Get your copy today.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wanted something more from your faith? More than religion? More than church? One lost and forgotten biblical word, "ekklesia," holds the key to a more vibrant and life-changing Christianity. --Modern English language Bibles quote Jesus as saying, "I will build My church." However, the earliest Bibles have Jesus saying, "I will build my ekklesia." For hundreds of years, this Bible word-switch has misdirected the way the body of Christ meets for worship. --So what does ekklesia mean? Ekklesia was the name of the city council in ancient Greek city-states. It was a democratic, interactive, participatory body of equal citizens sharing their concerns and needs with one another. --In the Western world, traditional church is in decline. Religious categories now include millions who are "Dones" (done with church) and "Nones" (have no church affiliation). --Perhaps it is time for more than church. Steve Simms invites you to go "beyond church" and experience ekklesia, HEAVEN's CITY COUNCIL, not as a theological concept, but as a practical and living reality.
