 Its All GREEK to Me…..
Θεοπνευστος-Divinely breathed in
Βαπτιζω-dip, immerse, plunge, sink, drench
Επισκοπον-a superintendent, i.e. Christian officer in
charge of a church…Bishop or Overseer
Dιάκονος-Servant of someone, Waiter of Tables,
Servant of Gospel or Church, God’s helper of
Gospel,
Εκκλησια-Called Out Ones, A calling out, a popular
meeting , especially a religious congregation-
assembly, church
Pastor (One Office, Several Functions)
Bishop, Elder, Pastor
Real Meaning of Church
The tern for church in NT means “called out” not “come
to”. Church is not just a meeting place to act holy
for few hours and live like heathens the rest of the
week. To be a member (true) of Baptist faith must
belief that members are set apart for God’s glory,
not just warm bodies that occupy space.
