THE YEAR THE “ARMY” TURNED INTO AN AUDIENCE”

1. ARMY CHURCH - for 300 years operating in micro-churches which included weekend gatherings for equipping and mobilizing the saints

 

2. CHURCH BECAME AUDIENCE: Constantine declared Christianity a state religion in 323 A.D.and started erecting new buildings

 

3. CHRISTIANITY SHIFTED TO CHRISTENDOM - lost vision for nations, real discipleship and became moral movement

 

4. FATAL SHIFT TO THE FRONT - Death of laity and priesthood of every believer and birth of clergy which separated clergy and laity

 

5. VERBS CHANGED TO NOUNS - apostles, prophets, pastors, teachers, evangelists, church (verbs became nouns) - service was verb and became name of meeting - spectators, not participants church became building, not bride or army (stained glass, not catacombs - order of service - not open church dressing up started as royalty attended with Constantine - sermons instead of prophetic movement, churches names after saints, choirs, empty buildings all week, 11 a.m. starting time, order of service instead of movement
