Paying the Pastor (Classic Reprint): Unscriptural and Traditional: Unscriptural and Traditional (Classic Reprint) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

This book is a critical examination of the practice of paying pastors, arguing that it is unscriptural and a deviation from the teachings of the original Christian church. The author traces the history of paid clergy from its origins in Judaism and paganism and shows how it became entrenched in Christianity after the time of the apostles. The book explores the biblical evidence against paying pastors, arguing that the New Testament teaches that the work of Christian ministry should be voluntary and supported by the voluntary offerings of the congregation. The author also provides practical suggestions for how congregations can implement this biblical model of ministry, which they call 'apostolic Christianity'. This well-researched and thought-provoking book challenges the traditional view of paid clergy and offers a compelling vision for a more biblical and authentic form of Christian ministry.
