In local church where I was before, they have house teams but they act according to the plan and program of the pastor who is the head. Few weeks ago I´ve talking with pastor and his wife and they believe that pastors role is to be like Moses leading the people, but its totaly wrong and its not Biblical according to the NT. They are not willing to lose their control over the people.

There have ALWAYS been house churches e.g. Calvary Chapel.

There are no formulae EXCEPT sound Biblical exegesis. The Apostles witnessed the life, death and resurrection of Christ; they had the very best teaching. We CANNOT go back to that. Groups must have Biblically sound teachers.

CULTS also began this way. Like these videos they waited on The Holy Spirit to lead them. Without a Biblical method of interpretation, many false spirits will turn up as an ‘angel of light’.

I'm starving for this kind of fellowship...

Even with whatever conflicts and imperfections might come along, it seems to me this was the way of the 1st century churches... completely unique in the (roman) world of religion and self-rigjhteousness...

Thank you to any Christian who wants to pray for me..

well said...this is real wisdom...I respect someone who came out of the professional side of religion, recognising it for what it is

Thanks for sharing from your heart brother, God is breaking down so many traditions of man and ungodly structures that we will simply be the body of Christ under the headship of Christ.
