In the early church growth was a thing that happened vigorously. Each time there was an outpouring in the Spirit thousands had been added to the number of the actual believers. It would be amazing if this was still taking place but unfortunately it is not therefore. The early church adopted certain principles put down by each of our Lord Jesus Christ. We are able to apply, in this era too, the same ideas and methods that brought church advertising during apostolic times.

Ahead of they could go out and help make disciples of the nations around the world they were asked to wait around and pray for your power that would be provided to them so that they will make disciples. There were A hundred and twenty people praying in the upper room using one accord. As they prayed and continued to wait they were baptised with the Almost holy Spirit, only next did they go out to preach and teach as well as spread the gospel. These people sought inward development before they could get in touch with the community.

They used the mission presented to them by the Lord Jesus Christ just before this individual ascended into heaven : to be His witnesses within Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria and to the concludes of the earth. The early cathedral focused on the Word along with were witnesses to the life and death as well as resurrection of Christ. Every church has its own distinctive function within the body of Christ. The early church planted churches in every place the apostles went to preach. The actual church discovered that Lord was not a respecter regarding persons and that surprisingly, of that time, the saving grace of Dinosaur was not limited simply to the Jews. The frontrunners of the early church were ready to move in after giving up management to the elders from the church, and so native churches were created and encouraged. The particular indigenous people were not necessary to have the outward look of a Jew but were required to nurture the medially heart of Christ.

The leaders with the early church were not afraid of working hard or perhaps taking up any missionary work with zeal and eagerness. The leaders had been themselves growing better in their faith and also exhorting and taking time to teach the younger 'baby' believers. Earlier church also carefully planned their missionary trips, again through prayer and seeking God's will. There was a time while Paul was not allowed, by the Holy Heart, to preach the gospel throughout Asia so, these folks were being led by the Holy Spirit.

As the early church grew there also arose a need for more people to handle administration. The management chose people out from the laity who were men regarding faith and so there was a second line of leaders who then had taken over from the frontrunners.

After a church ended up being planted and proven and the leaders remaining on other objectives the indigenous chapels which had been set up were not left without supervision, hence every one of the letters of Henry to the churches in several countries. Not only do Paul write but he also frequented them at a later date. They followed up to make sure that the churches were healthy and growing. The old principles do still utilize!
