On Friday mornings at 5:30am we read through books by faithful Christians through from church history. We are currently reading through Volume 11 of Thomas Goodwin’s Works, “Of the Constitution, Right Order, and Government of the Churches of Christ.”
Todays reading was from Chapters 1-2
Chapter 1: “A brief scheme of the several opinions concerning the constitution and government of the church of Christ. – The truth stated and vindicated”
Chapter 2: “That the constitution of a church, and the rules of its order and government, are established by a certain institution of Christ. Some propositions laid down in order to the demonstration of this truth.”
Goodwin, Thomas The Government of the Churches of Christ in The Works of Thomas Goodwin, Vol. 11 (Lafayette: Sovereign Grace Publishers, Inc., 2000), 3-15.
