Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the concept of increasing the number of bishops within the Christian church. The author argues that the primitive and apostolic model of the church featured a high number of bishops, and that this model should be restored in order to effectively evangelize and convert people to Christianity. The author discusses the historical development of the episcopate, from its apostolic origins to its modern form, and argues that the current model of large dioceses is a departure from the primitive practice. The book provides a wealth of historical evidence to support its arguments, and it offers a compelling vision for the future of the church. The author's insights on the importance of the episcopate are significant, and they offer a valuable contribution to the ongoing discussion about the future of the Christian church.
