by William Michael Ellis (Author)
From the time he was a young boy in Vacation Bible School at at College Avenue Baptist church, author William Ellis had questions: - Why is there was a Methodist church across the street, a Catholic church several blocks away, and a Presbyterian church around the corner, all of which his school friends attend and they all claimed to be Christians? - If we're all Christians, why are we not meeting together to worship and praise the Lord? Denominations Are Not Necessary by William Ellis is a compelling book which seeks to answer the question, "How is the Christian church to be modeled?" One part Bible study, one part denominational overview, Ellis provides an in-depth study of what the Bible teaches about how God intended the church to look upon His departure at Pentecost. Currently, believers find multiple options for organizational gathering opportunities, many of which claim to be the only righteous path to follow in coming together and worshipping our Lord Jesus Christ. Is this really what God wanted for His body? Throughout the book, Ellis discusses biblical structure and design of the church and delves into different denominations and what their belief system is, all while focusing on the important theme of Christians coming together under the authority of Christ as one body, rather than divided factions. A fascinating read from beginning to end, this book will make you realize the true picture of what the modern church should look like, no denominations necessary!
