Ecclesia Totally Explained

Everything about Ecclesia totally explained

Ecclesia (lat) is a term derived from the Greek root ekklesia [εκκλησία], which literally means a "gathering" of citizens, in an ancient Greek city-state, or a "called-out assembly"; usually defined as "gathering of the called-out ones" or “gathering of those summoned”. Theologically it has been equated from the New Testament passages, originally written in Greek language, as the Church (though the origin of the term "Church" is the Greek root kyriakon [fromkyriake, kyriakos; kyrios; kyros]) and also as the Body of Christ, a view which reflects a deeper Spiritual and invisible dimension into the use of the term Ecclesia. Current uses of the term Ecclesia are as following:

Ecclesia (Church), the Christian Church, which is composed of Ecclesia Militans (the "Church Militant"), and Ecclesia Triumphans (the "Church Triumphant").
Ecclesia (ancient Athens), the popular assembly in ancient Athens.
The Ekklesia is the convention of chapter delegates which governs the Fraternity of Phi Gamma Delta.
Ecclesia (sociology of religion), a concept in the typology of religion.
Ecclesia (Texan church) is the name of a scripture-based, mission-focused Christian Church in Houston Texas.
Ekklesia (think tank), a British organization which promotes theological ideas in public life.
The Ecclesia, the Rosicrucian Healing Temple in the United States, dedicated to the coming astrological Age of Aquarius.
