“Interestingly about the Phillipian Jailer, Paul went back to his house aswell and baptised him and his household aswell. Was this church aswell? Was there then 2 churches within the space of a few days in Phillipi? One at Lydia’s and one at the Jailers?”

Mark,
I thought we had established many comments back that the Believers are the church. Not buildings with certain numbers of parishoners in them. Didn’t we? 🙂

Perhaps they remained separate congregations or perhaps Lydia’s and the Jailer’s households met together, we do not know, I agree.

But, what would keep either group from being the Church whether God had them remain separate or joined? Either way, it’s the people who are the Church.
