John,

I thought it interesting that you mentioned having "a central governing 
body."  Unless someone has read any of the "History of Plymouth Brethren" 
books they wouldn't know that at one time this occured in London whereby the 
elders from all the assemblies in the area met on a regular basis to decide 
things that would be done in all the assemblies.

Your brother in Christ,

Don Andersen

Dear Don et all;
One thing history proves is that man doesn't learn from history.
Assemblies that once were reasonably sound in keeping God's word and not
denieing His name,now like to call themselves The Brethren, like to hire a
Pastor, and there is a movement to have a central governing body, an
eclesiastical hierarchy.
According to the information I have in 606 A.D. after the death of
Gregory [ bishop of Rome ],Emperor Phocas conferred the title of Universal
Bishop upon Boniface, thus the papacy was born.
In Him our hope!
