ZNP, where do one of these writers say, or even suggest, "one church per city"? You and I can be in the same assembly and be factious and divisive. Likewise, the apostle can write the Christian polity in Rome and ask them to greet the 'ekklesia' in one person's house. A factious spirit isn't engendered by different groupings. Jesus had the thousands sit in different groups of hundreds and fifties when He fed them, yet I see no trace of rancorous party spirits arising.
