What do you mean by doctrine AND practice?


On the the admission and dismissal of members and baptisms, how much should the congregations be involved. The NT speaks of the whole church agreeing on many aspects. The doctrine need not change (because even congregational churches have statements of faith) but practices vary from those that are closely hinged to doctrine and those that are loosely hinged to doctrine.

I see a lot of congregational involvement in the NT.
