Sinossi
Excerpt from A Study of Christianity as Organized: Its Ideas and Forms
In a study of Christianity, however, organization would not be generally chosen as its most attractive aspect. It has too much the appearance of legal mechanism. Also, it has provoked a great deal of discreditable controversy - ih this respect standing by no means alone - and may seem to tend practically to division rather than unity in the Christian world.
No wonder, then, that certain sincere minds should be dis posed to pass by such a theme with a very moderate amount of attention. Yet in point of fact it is full-laden with interest and significance. If the reader find it otherwise, the fault will be the writer's - or possibly his own.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the foundational principles of church organization, tracing its evolution from a simple brotherhood to a structured institution. The author underscores the importance of understanding the unifying truth that binds Christians together and serves as the impetus for organizing their community. The unifying truth explored in this book is Jesus Christ himself. Through an examination of biblical texts and historical sources, the author demonstrates how the teachings and life of Jesus inspire a sense of fraternity, fostering fellowship and a shared purpose among his followers. This brotherhood is then expressed through organizational structures that enable the church to carry out its mission in the world. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the key concepts shaping church organization, including service, authority, unity, and individualism. It explores how these concepts have been interpreted and applied throughout Christian history, resulting in diverse organizational forms. The author highlights the challenges and opportunities that arise as churches navigate the tension between personal freedom and collective responsibility. The book is not merely a historical account; it offers valuable insights for contemporary church leaders. The author draws connections between the origins of church organization and the challenges facing churches today, emphasizing the need for a renewed focus on the unifying truth of Christ. Through a balanced approach that incorporates biblical, historical, and practical perspectives, this book empowers readers to engage critically with the topic of church organization and its implications for the life and mission of the Christian community. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
