Publisher's Synopsis
Church problems develop because most people and churches run on presumption, rather than following the strong, cutting, and specific scriptures that tell us how people and the organization of the church is to operate. Frustrated with the ineffective operation of churches Rev. Shea found there were no such studies as to what the Bible says about church structure and how people should function within the body, so after years of Biblical study this book has come about which he uses as a membership requirement. For those who respect the authority of the scriptures they will find this study surprisingly clear and strong. It is pastor Shea's hope that as we follow the biblical commands and patterns our churches will become more effective and immune to the common maladies affecting our churches.
