On another blog, there is discussion on what are the essentials to the makeup of a true Church. What would you say would be essential characteristics of a true church? I'm sure we would all start with the preaching of the true gospel. What else would you include?
 
1) Faithful preaching of the Gospel and Word.
2) Faithful administration of the ordinance ( sacrament) of the Lords Supper and Baptism.
3) Church Discipline.
 
"The Bible is the inspired Word of God without error, and is to be the final rule and authority for all matters of faith and practice".

This I believe is the most important statement that defines a biblical church - both professed to, and followed in practice.
