You’re just dodging.
There is no Christianity outside of Church Christianity.
Trying to treat my fellow man the way Jesus said to do is what i am interested in doing.
What are these elders of the church?
Heb 13: 17 Obey your leaders and submit to their authority. They keep watch over you as men who must give an account. Obey them so that their work will be a joy, not a burden, for that would be of no advantage to you.
Who are these leaders to whom you are to give obedience?
