HISTORY of Christian Theology

Church

a term translated from the Greek word “Ecclesia” which means an assembly called together and is sometime translated as a congregation. A church is an organized group of believers who adhere to a set of core beliefs. The Church in the first centuries of Christianity generally refers to the group of separate churches that were in common communion with each other and universally (catholic) agreed to core beliefs and practices.
