Dynamic New Teaching from Bestselling Author Ed Silvoso The word church has many connotations; we think of it as a specific building, as a group of people, even as a long service to sit through. We hardly ever think of it as world-changing--and neither does society. Yet this is exactly what the first-century ekklesia was. In these vital, eye-opening pages, bestselling author Ed Silvoso takes you back to the first days of the church. Digging into Scripture, he shows how the New Testament church--devoid of buildings, professional clergy, and religious freedom--was able to transform the hostile, pagan places into which it was born and set in motion a process that changed the world forever. Even more, Silvoso offers a roadmap back to becoming the ekklesia Jesus called his church to be. In the midst of the social, economic, political, and moral chaos in our world today, we possess the hope that people and nations so desperately need--and we can become the revolutionary, transformational, life-giving voice Jesus called us to be. A new, in-depth curriculum kit--which features a DVD with 12 brand-new teaching sessions, a group guide for both leaders and participants, and a copy of the book--is also available. Expounding on the book's dynamic teachings, each kit contains everything you need to equip your group to transform the world around them.

Download One Assembly Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Many churches are switching to the multisite or multiservice models to manage crowded sanctuaries due to growing attendance. This solution seems sensible in the short term, but too often churches adopt this model without taking into consideration what the Bible says about it. Illuminating the importance of physical togetherness as a way to protect the gospel, this book argues that maintaining a single assembly best embodies the unity the church possesses in Jesus Christ. Jonathan Leeman considers a series of biblical, theological, and pastoral arguments that ask us to stop and examine intuitions or assumptions about what a church is. He reorients our minds to a biblical definition of church, offering examples of churches that have thrived with a single service at a single site and compelling alternatives for those looking to solve the complications that come with a growing church.

DIVToday there is a lot of emphasis on building within Christianity. We speak of building the kingdom and building the church, neither of which are our responsibility. The Father has given us the kingdom and Christ said He would build the church. In the New Testament, the word translated as church is Ekklesia. /div

What is a church? This can be a difficult question to answer and Christians have offered a variety of perspectives. Gregg Allison thus explores and synthesizes all that Scripture affirms about the new covenant people of God, capturing a full picture of the biblical church. He covers the topics of the church's identity and characteristics; its growth through purity, unity, and discipline; its offices and leadership structures; its ordinances of baptism and the Lord's Supper; and its ministries. Here is a rich approach to ecclesiology consisting of sustained doctrinal reflection and wise, practical application. Part of the Foundations of Evangelical Theology series.

Download The Origin and Meaning of Ekklēsia in the Early Jesus Movement Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
In The Origin and Meaning of Ekklēsia in the Early Jesus Movement, Ralph J. Korner explores the ideological implications of Christ-follower associations self-designating collectively as ekklēsiai. Politically, Korner’s inscriptional research suggests that an association named ekklēsia would have been perceived as a positive, rather than as a counter-imperial, participant within Imperial Greek cities. Socio-religiously, Korner argues that there was no universal ekklēsia to which all first generation Christ-followers belonged; ekklēsia was a permanent group designation used by Paul’s associations. Ethno-religiously, Korner contends that ekklēsia usage by intra muros groups within pluriform Second Temple Judaism problematizes suggestions, not least at the institutional level, that Paul was “parting ways” with Judaism(s), ‘Jewishness’, or Jewish organizational forms.

Download The Vision & Practice of God's Eternal Purpose Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
This booklet is entitled: The Vision and Practice of God's Eternal Purpose. It is the first in a series of five booklets taken from Henry Hon's first book in his Trilogy entitled: ONE EKKLESIA. This booklet will contain chapters 1, 2, 3, and 4 of ONE EKKLESIA. The Eternal Plan and Purpose of God - in gathering a people for His Name - was amplified by Jesus in Mathew 16:18 when He declared: "I will build My EKKLESIA and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it." Just what did Jesus mean by this revelatory statement after Peter declared that Jesus was the Christ, the anointed One, the Son of the Living God? This initial introduction to Ecclesiology will transform the way Christians view their calling and witness in today's world. Never has there been a time--at the climax of this age--when clarity on this topic is so prophetically essential. Scores of "distractions" abound--but in the end, God's people must affirm their "common faith and salvation" is the very essence of His Ekklesia--and in so doing, and living it out, the very Gates of Hades shall not prevail against such a VISION and PRACTICE of His EKKLESIA!

Download Ekklesia - Meaning & Appearance Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
EKKLESIA: MEANING & APPEARANCE is the second of the five-part series taken from Henry Hon's ONE EKKLESIA which is his first in his Trilogy--the titles of the other two books are ONE TRUTH and ONE LIFE & GLORY. When Jesus said "I will build My Ekklesia and the Gates of Hades will not prevail against it" (Matt. 16:18), what exactly did He mean by these words? Hon explores the distortion and profound theological implications on how and why the translators of the early English Bibles translated the word "Ekklesia" to "Church" instead of Assembly and/or Congregation--the emphasis being upon a physical building and not the people. He contends that the People of God today need a paradigm shift in their thinking in understanding the "organic" nature of the Ekklesia as a living, breathing organism--the people, certainly not a physical building. The Lord's desire--His plan and purpose for the ages--is to create in Himself, through the blood of His cross, one New Man, so making peace. The fundamental nature of the Ekklesia is at stake here--otherwise, the Gates of Hades will prevail against us all. However, the Lord is building His Ekklesia, therefore, the Gates of Hades will not prevail.
