A WALK ON THE KETCHERSIDE

W.C. Ketcherside's amazing book, "The Royal Priesthood" was written over 50 years ago, yet it packs an incredible punch today.

Just reading from the first chapter today and wanted to share this:

"The early church gathered around a table; the modern church sits before a pulpit.

The Lord placed the table in the church so it could remember its debt to him; the clergy placed the pulpit in the church to bring it into debt to them.

In the early church they all spoke one by one; today all the speaking is done by one.

Then the Spirit was kindled; now it is quenched.

Then they claimed to love each other and talked about Jesus; now they claim to love Jesus and talk about each other.

In those days all exerted an effort to exhort; now all must be exhorted to exert any effort.

The primitive disciples did not ask the world to come and get the gospel, they took it to them. They gathered to eat the Lord's Supper, then scattered to preach the Word.

Wherever there was a Christian and a sinner, there was a gospel meeting."
