<blockquote>Act 15:22 Then pleased it the apostles and elders, with the whole church...</blockquote>

This is the Biblical model. It was used to solve the earliest problems in the church. A church run by the Moses principle does not need concensus. But it is not based on the New Testament model for the church.
Further, the local church was not atonomous. It looked to Jerusalem to help.

Paul went up and spoke to the entire church about the matter (Acts 15:4). The Apostles and elders called a meeting to discuss the matter (15:6). The entire church (the multitude) was present at this discussion (15:12). Paul and Peter's argument won the day. The decision was made by the Apostles **and** the elders **and** the people, as the text says:

<blockquote>Act 15:22 Then pleased it the apostles and elders, with the whole church...</blockquote>

!How Ought Church Leadership Be Done?

Many CC people have not been outside of a CC. If they have they have not looked closely at other church leadership examples. They think that Calvary Chapel is normal or that it's just another option among equally possible options for church leadership. How did the early church solve such problems? Read Acts 15 carefully and see how problems were solved.

The local church at Antioch had a problem. Many Gentiles were getting converted and there was confusion among the people as to whether they should be instructed to follow the law of Moses. Some people had come from Judea telling them that the new believers needed to be circumciz

In the article, Taylor describes how he now views the Zeus (Moses) Principle:
Zeus leaders are typically smart, insightful, and hard working, usually workaholics, who spend little time with their families. They are often noted for their public persona of love, but find it nearly impossible to genuinely connect on a personal level with anyone, and find it quite easy to dismiss people out of their lives and minds when they perceive a lack of absolute loyalty. They have come to expect flattery, and although they may eschew traditional ecclesiastical titles, love to be called “Pastor”, “The Man”, “The Head M

Mat 23:2 Saying, The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat: 3 All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do; but do not ye after their works: for they say, and do not. 4 For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers. 5 But all their works they do for to be seen of men: they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments, 6 And love the uppermost rooms at feasts, and the chief seats in the synagogues, 7 And greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, Rabbi, Rabbi. 8 But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren.

It is interesting that Chuck Smith has picked the phrase Moses Principle, and has chosen to sit in Moses' seat. The scribes and Pharisees usurped the authority of the Levites and took over the position that God had ordained for them. Anyone el
