RE: Catholic (Orthodox) vs. Protestant (Reformed, Anglican, Lutheran and other) views on the topic of the State and of the Gospel

Hi @paulvp,

Thanks for your thoughtfully transparent response.

I'd welcome any thoughts or evidence (particularly biblical) in support of apostolic succession for my remedial study. :)

Meanwhile, continuing in my current understanding, I imagine the LORD guiding individual congregations/cells of his own body directly, while within those cells we experience voluntary, mutual submission and servant leadership.

Blessings, brother!
