[D-fendr]

The church was never an organization or corporation, and never had any “officers.” It was simply the total of the believers..

There is an invisible Church. And a visible Church. In Holy Scripture it is the visible Church that Paul writes to. He writes with authority as there is authority, there is a hierarchy.

To say otherwise is to ignore scripture.

[editor-surveyor]

Paul wrote to congregations only.

To say otherwise is to revise scripture.

There is no corporation of men that represents Yeshua’s Assembly/Congregation. Yeshua is his Assembly’s only authority.
