It will be some time before this portion of this study is started. I am now working on the Introduction which should be completed within the next few days. Most of the other chapters below are already in the book Separation of Church and State: Spiritual or Legal Entities in online form, PDF, or downloadable audio. Click here to go to the order page for books by Jerald Finney. After I finish the introduction which will be much more concise and informative than the Introduction in the above book, I will finish and publish Chapter 13, “How To Organize a Church according to Bible Principle.”
