One criticism occasionally leveled at the United Pentecostal Church International and other church organizations is that, in the view of some, there is no precedent for these entities in the New Testament. These critics argue that religious organizations are just manmade groups with no spiritual authority, and their leaders are little more than religious bureaucrats appointed by men.

Dr. David K. Bernard responds to this charge by showing the biblical precedent for organized Christian ministry. He provides Scriptural evidence of churches and leaders in the New Testament coordinating their efforts and appointing leaders with spiritual oversight and authority. Dr. Bernard also explains why churches and believers should do the same today.
