The Area Church figured much in the heart and writings of Apostle Paul. Paul was concerned for all the True Believers in the Provinces or Cities to which he wrote or communicated. Every True Believer needs a Local Church Spiritual home but the Local Churches should be able to be in fellowship with one another in such a way as to constitute the Area Church.
