Moses E. Kellogg. Order and organization without extreme authority and unity without compulsion is the scriptural ideal of the government of the church. This book exposes the supposed "perpetual" succession taught by Roman Catholicism. The book firmly establishes five principles of true church governance (1) No primacy was established by Christ or recognized in the NT (2) How a primacy grew up in the church (3) The power and position attained by that primacy in the temporal reign of the popes (4) The loss of the temporal power and (5) Church government as revealed in the New Testament. PB 290 pg.
