Is "Placing Church Membership" Biblical?
You won't find the words "place membership" in the New Testament. And, when you're baptized, you're added by God to His church. So do we need to publicly declare our membership with a local congregation? We discuss, including: - Defining "church" and "member" Biblically- Is church an "organism" or an "organization?"- Do baptized teens become members separate from their parents?- Individualism vs. Collectivism- The importance of elders (and other church leaders) in defining membership With Will Harrub, Jack Wilkie, and Joe Wilkie
