Subject: Scripture and conflict in the church |
Bible Note: Apollos, I am confused. As I understand it, in the early church each individual local church was led by two or more elders/pastors.* But if the local church I attend has only one pastor, then how am I to confer with the other pastors? There are no other pastors in my church. Grace to you, John *elders/pastors. 'The "elders" of the New Testament church were the "pastors" (Ephesians 4:11), "bishops or overseers" (Acts 20:28), "leaders" and "rulers" (Hebrews 13:7; 1 Thessalonians 5:12) of the flock. Everywhere in the New Testament bishop and presbyter are titles given to one and the same officer of the Christian church. He who is called presbyter or elder on account of his age or gravity is also called bishop or overseer with reference to the duty that lay upon him (Titus 1:5-7; Acts 20:17-28; Phil 1:1).
