The local church is an expression of an apostolic center where apostolic doctrines are established and practiced. There are certain important foundational doctrines that are significant in the building of the local church that must be understood, established, and practiced for an apostolic center to be functional and effective in its purposes and assignments. The absence of these things weaken the strength of the local church and its expressions, and deprives it of the opportunity of receiving the fullness that God intended from the understanding and practice of these truths.
