Part 1: Opening up a special series of meetings, David McAllister provides an incredibly helpful message on “The Meaning of An Assembly”. David deals with three questions in the course of the message: What is an Assembly? Whose is an Assembly? and Where is an Assembly? Much time is given to outline the vital and important differences between the ‘Church which is his body’ of Matthew 16 and the ‘local church’ of Matthew 18. Clarification is provided as to why the word “assembly” (Grk: Ekklesia) is used as opposed to “church”. A vital message. Readings: Matthew 16, Matthew 18 and 1 Corinthians 1.
