Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Apostolic Method of Church Extension: A Sermon Preached at Saco, June 22, 1853, Before the Maine Missionary Society, at Its Forty-Sixth Anniversary Isaiah LIV: 2. Enlarge the place Of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations. Spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes. The true and final home of the Church is in heaven. In this world she is but a pilgrim and a stranger; in heaven alone is her permanent abode, her abiding city. Here is her night Of toil, there her day of endless repose. Here is her place of prayer, there her place of praise. Here is the scene of her conflicts and self-denials, there Of her triumphs and enjoyments. Here, in a word, she sojourns as a stranger in a strange country, dwelling by faith in a temporal abode; there her pilgrimage will terminate, and she will take up her ever lasting residence in those mansions-which Christ has gone to prepare for her and her children. The passage before us evidently contemplates the Church in her earthly position and probationary state - her habitation the temporary tent of a pilgrim, and her condition that Of a sojourner having an important mission to perform, ere she passes on to her celestial home. The figurative representation of the prophet is as true to the reality, as it is beautiful in conception. My purpose, however, is not to dwell upon that part Of it, which implies the transitory condition of the Church On earth; suffice it to say, that Of the multitudes who have composed her Visible organization, since her tent was first pitched among men, all, Of every age and generation except the present, have passed away to their permanent abode in eternity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A church in the heart of Manhattan and a congregation among the Inuit people of Northern Canada would seem to have little in common with one another. Yet in one way they are surprisingly similar: They are both apostolic congregations, churches whose every program exists for the purpose of presenting the gospel to non-Christians, and making disciples of Jesus Christ. What is the secret of churches like these; how have they learned to make evangelism central to everything they do? In studying apostolic congregations around the world, George G. Hunter III has discovered a set of perspectives and practices that they all share. With the passion and insight for which he is so well known, Hunter demonstrates how your congregation can learn to focus on the one thing that most matters: bringing people into a saving relationship with Jesus Christ.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If it were once believed that the freedom of churches should be restricted to bring greater control to missions, Roland Allen sets out to overturn this conception. Warning against the danger of imposing greater limits on churches, the Author advocates that all members of the church, 'natives' and foreigners alike, must take an active role in its establishment and daily life. The study divides itself into nine chapters; the first, introducing Allen's standpoint, the second as an opening into thenature and character of Spontaneous Expression. The third chapter deals with modern attempts by 'natives' towards the liberty of their churches. The fear of the doctrine becoming weakened by natives taking it into their own hands is addressed by chapter four and this fear is widened into the realm of the Christian standard of morals in chapter five. Civilisation and enlightenment form the central themes of the sixth chapter. Chapters seven and eight tackle the distinction between the Church andmissionary societies. It is in the final chapter that the future of Spontaneous Expansion is investigated and Allen puts forward his ideas which, as he rightly predicted, were broadly accepted fifty years and longer still after their original publication.

Book excerpt: Millions of Christians around the world are becoming aware of an imminent reformation of global proportions within the church. God is changing this revered institution and is making a new collective awareness of an age-old revelation, a corporate spiritual echo that reflects God's desire for the church. In this book, Simson brings to light what God is saying to Christians everywhere. Researched across the globe, he presents the case for the reformation of the church's existence. In a world where the church is being ignored, it is time to bring the church to the people and not the people to the church. Whether it is what we know as church from the last five years or the last five hundred years, no one has truly been able to break free from the structures of the past. Many may see this book as radical, many may see it as a reforming of old ideals but all who read it will be challenged and their priorities refocused in a life-changing way.

Download or read book The Apostolic Canopy written by Joel Garcia and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2007-08 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Apostolic Canopy is a book that describes the relationship dynamics of the fivefold ministry: apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers. This book addresses these individual roles and how they work together to reach and equip God's people to establish his kingdom. For too long the notion that apostles existed only in the first century or so of church history is no longer a valid argument. Today, it is evident that the fivefold ministry is rapidly emerging and mobilizing for the end time revival harvest that will sweep the globe. Apostles play the preeminent role among God's government, hence, the Apostolic Canopy. In this book you will understand the functional and relational dynamics of the Apostolic Canopy model. For you to embrace this model you must first understand and appreciate the role that each of the fivefold ministries plays in a person's life to reach, develop and send them to their destiny. Joel Garcia, a Senior Associate Pastor at the International Church of Las Vegas, for the past fourteen years has been actively involved in just about every facet of local church ministry with the exception of women's ministry. His latest endeavor has been preparing a team and planting of an extension campus in the south area of Las Vegas. In just the first two months the church has grown to over 200 people. Joel is currently pursuing his Master's degree from Regent University in Organizational Leadership with an emphasis in executing coaching and mentoring, and has established his own executive coaching and consulting practice for the purpose of equipping church pastors and leaders, and marketplace executives to become more effective leaders. Joel and his wife Robyn have been married for the past 22 years and currently live in the Summerlin Community of Las Vegas with their three wonderful children Ashley, Joeley and Grant.

Download or read book The Apostolic Fathers and the New Testament written by Clayton N. Jefford and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2006-08-01 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The apostolic fathers were authors of nonbiblical church writings of the first and early second centuries. These works are important because their authors, Clement I, Hermas, Ignatius of Antioch, Polycarp, and the author of the Epistle of Barnabas, were contemporaries of the biblical writers. Expressing pastoral concern, their writings are similar in style to the New Testament. Some of their writings, in fact, were venerated as Scripture before the official canon was decided. The Apostolic Fathers and the New Testament provides a comparison of the apostolic fathers and the New Testament that is at once comprehensive and accessible. What genres (letters, miracle stories, etc.) appear in what ways? What apostolic fathers seem to reflect which passages in the New Testament? What themes appear in both bodies of literature? How did the apostolic fathers adopt and adapt images from the New Testament? How do the New Testament and the Apostolic Fathers contribute to our understanding of how early Christians understood themselves in relation to the mother faith of Judaism? Any attempt to compare the Apostolic Fathers and the New Testament faces the difficulty that each set of writings represents diverse authors and historical contexts within the early church. As a result, scholars who work in the field have typically restricted their research to individual authors and writings. Thus, it has been difficult to come to any general observations about the larger corpus. After carefully examining images, themes, and concepts found in the New Testament and the apostolic fathers, Jefford posits some general observations and insights about the beliefs of the early church.
