Thanks for that context.🙏😁💜🫂😆

I'm mostly aligned with point one there, a "priesthood of all believers" guy.

Merely human writings (especially mine!) are a mixed bag; of some value as summaries, but never to be preferred to Scripture.

The model I see in Scripture is congregational, cooperative (but 100% decentralized apart from King Jesus himself), non-hierarchical, 100% voluntary (within a covenant community, i.e. a non-coercive membership organization).

So my perspective is far from Presbyterian (although I'm part of a congregation with strong Presbyterian leanings).😆
