You said it was too Christ like to be true, and you accused him of having a one man rulership church, instead of just asking if he had plurality of elders. So, I think you are the one with the chip.
But I was serious, you know what you want, what you are looking to accomplish, so why go to Apostolic churches in your area when you already know they don't have the leadership which you are looking to sit under? This is only common sense, and since you know it all, then go forward and get your elders together and start what you believe is Christ Like.

I was teasing about "too Christ like" and I was not accusing CC1 I was asking a question, so kindly chill out.
I am curious about church government that works, which, in my definition is to be truly Christ like and not self serving as a congregation. Church leadership that is not afraid to hear and address opposing opinions and equally respects everyone in the congregation.
I would not start a church as I know I'm not even close to being qualified, nor would I want to because I know I'm not called. Too many preachers & pastors out there already that were called by their parents or others and have mistaken that for God's calling IMHO. I don't know it all that is why I'm in this forum asking questions. Don't be so overly sensitive and quick to judge Beni.
