Author George McDaniel writes in the introduction to Churches of the New Testament:
“The Church” and “The New Testament Church,” whatever those terms may mean, have been the subjects of treatment by several authors. These books, for the most part, leave me where Tacitus left his hero—in the middle of the bridge.
The Seven Churches of Asia addressed by the Spirit in the book of Revelation are the theme of several interesting volumes. A discussion of the most important churches of the New Testament, those which figured in the inauguration and propagation of Christianity, which occupied the major part of the history of the Acts, and which called forth the great epistles of Paul, has never been presented in a single volume.
The aim of this book is to show the origin, character, principles, and practices of the New Testament churches; to show the unity which existed in essentials amidst the variety of material and diversity of environment; to point morals and deduce lessons for twentieth century pastors, laymen, and churches."
