Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book argues that ruling elders are a vital part of the Presbyterian Churchâs orderly and equitable government, along with sessions, presbyteries, synods, and general assemblies. They are representatives of the people and possess equal power with the clergy in various judicatories. The author's scriptural evidence includes 1 Corinthians xii. 28, Romans xii. 4-8, and 1 Timothy v. 17. The author feels strongly that the office of ruling elder is a scriptural warrant and provides insight into the origins, duties, and qualifications of ruling elders.
