Regional Churches that teach with solid exposition, have God-honoring shepherds, and hold a very high view of Scripture including six-day creation, the reality of the first man, Adam and the Last Adam, Christ Jesus. These churches hold a high view of God’s sovereignty and understand mankind’s fallen nature and the implications of that for the gospel, salvation and sanctification. These churches hold a high view of God’s holiness, justice, mercy, grace, omniscience and omnipotence.

The Church’s One Foundation –A truly outstanding, technically excellent, and very challenging view of Biblical
ecclesiology. Author Ted Bigelow ordained at The Masters Seminary, and has studied over 200 books on ecclesiology. He handles the argument from the Biblical and historical perspective with great care and persuasion. Caution! Once the “cat is out of the bag”, so to speak, you can’t put him back in. Once you have done some reading it will profoundly challenge your view of what church is, what it ought to be, Biblically, and require you to make some changes and/or bring about changes in not only your church, but the surrounding ones in your town or city.Once the “cat is out of the bag”, so to speak, you can’t put him back in.
May you be moved to dissatisfaction, resolution and obedience.
