There is perhaps no subject that Christians have discussed, debated and argued over more fiercely than that of the nature, government and function of the church. And the arguments have not been merely over denominational issues, but over issues within and specific to particular denominations, with representatives from various denominations sometimes holding some of the same views. But if it is true that this subject has been discussed at such length and argued over so fiercely, why does it need to be addressed again? Because, the author believes, the church has not yet arrived at a satisfactory conclusion regarding this matter. However, the message of this book does not primarily address narrowly denominational issues. Rather, the author attempts to set out biblical principles that can, in the main, be acted upon and applied in all Christian churches, regardless of denomination. In this way the author seeks to apply the Reformation dictum Ecclesia reformata semper reformanda—“the reformed church is always fit to be reformed”—to the modern church in order to encourage a more faithful practice of the church’s great commission in our day.
