Simply put, “biblical theology” includes many concepts about the church. This is “ecclesiology”, and it is the part of theology that studies the origin, essence and historical development of the Church.
2. Empower Christians to give a complete testimony. Those who heard Jesus' disciples at Pentecost said, “We heard them speaking in our tongues about the magnificent things of God” (Acts 2:11). So another important purpose of this gift is to enable Christians to give “full testimony” and make “disciples of people of all nations,” just as Jesus had commanded them (Acts 10:42; Matthew 28:19). . About three thousand people who saw this miracle and heard the testimony of the disciples became Christians that same day (Acts 2:41).
Ecclesiology occupies a central place in the life of every Christian community. The answers given to ecclesiological questions in any Organization influence the daily life of the faithful.

Ephesians 3:10 says: “That the manifold wisdom of God may now be made known through the Church to the principalities and powers in the heavenly places.”

The apostle Paul tells the principalities and powers in the heavenly places that beyond the earth, beyond the cosmos, beyond the visible; There is an invisible world that we cannot see; and the apostle says that this Institution or this organism which is called the church has the most sacred and important mission of announcing this greatness of the riches of our God to the world that we see and that we do not see. The assembly of those saved by Christ is the company of the saints, the children of God. Paul says it is more important in the world than any other group of people.

North America, Russia, China are nations which have a certain capacity to make decisions that affect practically the entire planet. These are consulted both economically and militarily, and have the capacity to influence the world, but what the apostle Paul is saying is that an Institution more powerful than all these nations together, an Organization composed of people from all over the world called By God, they have the ability to guide and guide the destiny of this world in a special way.
Jesus says that the gates of hell will not prevail against the CHURCH, that, even if the devil himself and the world, the nations and all their military forces rise up against the CHURCH, they will not be able to defeat it. God fulfills in it a sublime and exalted purpose, the greatest in the world. The State is an Institution that God created, but above the State there is another that, although it does not mix with it or depend on it, is an Organization that surpasses it in the mission that the State has.

The unity of the Church

The first element about the Church that is presented to us from beginning to end is the essential unity of the Church under Jesus Christ. There is only one head, and only one body. The Church is “family, flock, temple, people, holy nation, royal priesthood” – one, under the command and protection of our King, Jesus Christ.

This unity implies equality of all brothers before the Lord, and mutual commitment to one another. There are many passages that presuppose the unity of the church, even outside of a local congregation. In the same way that we cannot imagine a solitary Christian not being part of the Church, in the same way we cannot imagine a solitary congregation that is not part of other congregations; understanding that the people of God must gather “as” the Church and not “in” the church.
«(The Church) is a body, a family, a flock, a kingdom. It is one because it is saturated by a single Spirit. We are all baptized in the same Spirit to become, says the apostle, in the body. This indwelling of the Spirit, which thus unites all the members of the body of Christ, produces not only this subjective or interior union that manifests itself in sympathy and affection, in the unity of faith and love, but also in external union. and communion… If one member suffers, all suffer with him; and if one member is honest, all rejoice with him.

The command to submit to one another:

The essence of Christianity requires mutual submission to one another. Christ has poured out his Spirit equally to the entire Church; There are not some who are more “anointed” than others (see 1 John 2:20,27). There are no vicars of Christ on earth. It is not necessary, since Jesus Christ is present through his Word and his Spirit. So Christians need to exercise humility toward one another, because no one has been named Christ's representative on earth. He represents himself!

Ecclesiology is therefore the set of actions we do to minister, according to what Scripture says, the undeserved goodness of the Gospel in our lives, such as giving God the praise and glory and not our capricious demands; how we administer to the saints and how to conduct ourselves with integrity so that our prayers are not hindered before God. Bad practice in the ecclesiastical field consciously or unconsciously causes manipulation of the Gospel, dismembers and attacks the good faith of those who sincerely approach Christ, unfortunately attracting perdition according to Revelation 22:18-19


BIBLICAL CHURCH does not intend to outline for you the historical ecclesiological context that has prevailed before and after the Protestant Reformation of the 16th century, because this is flawed wherever you look at it in the majority of interdenominational religious organizations; rather it appeals to the good spirit of verean discernment that any sincere Christian who intends to do the will of God to impartially search the content of biblical truths must adopt. BIBLICAL CHURCH presents to you the New Testament administrative biblical model used by the Apostles and believers of the first centuries, thus fulfilling every aspect that involves the sovereign will of God when worshiping Him and leading souls to meet Him, without altering the essence. of the divine salvific purpose of the Gospel above any particular interest, no matter how important it may be.

If we deviate from these precepts, Organizations begin to create their own doctrines and ordinances, calling good evil, and good evil; making darkness of light, and light of darkness. ECCLESIOLOGY is therefore a subject of study and daily application to learn to do all things for the glory of God without the influence of man, until we all reach the unity of faith and knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ.
