Qui a besoin de l’Église ? De nombreux chrétiens considèrent qu’il n’est pas nécessaire d’aller à l’église. « Ce n’est qu’un bâtiment », disent-ils. « Je peux prier n’importe où. Je n’ai pas besoin de me réunir avec d’autres chrétiens. » Dans ce petit livre, R. C. Sproul explique que l’Église ne désigne pas simplement un bâtiment, mais aussi l’ensemble des personnes qui s’y réunissent.

This small book has two main themes. The first is the argument that Scripture requires ministers in the church to be men - that is, they must be male. The second theme addresses the reason why this has become an issue at all (when the texts are so plain) and will argue that ministers in the Christian church must be more than male - that is, they must be vertebrates. The ministry calls for men in both senses of that word.

Biblical eldership is too important to the local church to be muddled in confusion and unscriptural church traditions. According to the New Testament, elders jointly pastor the church, teach the word, protect the church from false teachers, exhort and admonish believers in sound doctrine, pray with the sick, and judge doctrinal issues. In biblical terminology, elders shepherd, oversee, lead, manage, and care for the local church. By developing a healthy eldership, we develop a healthy church.
