Few, if any, address for a contemporary audience the biblical foundations of the government of the church. But this should be a priority for us, because God emphasizes the government of his church throughout Scripture. Why should we be church members? How do church officers reflect Jesus� reign over us? Where do the church�s responsibilities begin and end? Where do ours? These, and other important questions, are answered in Guy Prentiss Water�s vital examination of How Jesus Runs the Church. At a time when church authority is treated with contempt, it�s important that we honor God in our churches more than ever" -- Publisher description.20aPresbyterian Church in AmericaxGovernment.922584 0aPresbyterianism.922585 0aChurch polityxBiblical teaching.922586  2ddccBK01  hNO HOLDINGS IN ZAAPA - 27 OTHER HOLDINGS  c12389d12389  00102ddc4070aDAPAbDAPAd2012-05-16l1m1o262.051 PREpAPA014789r2013-10-30s2013-07-25t1w2012-05-16yBK
