On p. 27 (2nd ed., paragraph that began on p. 26 with "On the other hand")... Camp gives four examples of how he sees the historical church as having drifted from the biblical church and Jesus' vision for His church:
1. Ritual replaced discipleship
2. Protection of orthodoxy replaced body of Christ as church's purpose
3. heavenly reward replaced the transformed new creation life as "salvation"
4. Christendom replaced Christ-likeness
This resonates as quite true in my experience currently. In my previous experience church planting it did not, as we set a tone contrary to these new forms
Thoughts?
