The word "church" is never used in the New Testament - King James required that word to be added in place of "congregation". The original word is "ekklesia" or ecclesia, meaning "the called out ones".
This blog is my effort to share God's mind and most importantly, heart, as He shares them with me. I make a genuine effort to commune with Him daily and hear from Him. .Some poems are from Him to me, others from me to Him but all revelation shared is, I pray, from the Holy Spirit and not my carnal, soulish opinion. Please comment as you see fit. He is calling us all into His Holy of Holies.....let us all respond to his divine invitation for intimacy with a heart felt YES! SOS 2:11

Prior to the KING JAMES version, this word EKKLESIA was translated more closely to the original meaning. King James required them to use the word CHURCH because it supported the "institution" of the Church - which was his source of power. It was manipulation. He also changed other words for the same reason.....like he changed the word "overseers" to Bishops. The phrase "those who led you" or "those who help you" he changed to "those who have rule over you".
