Phil. 1:1 - Paul and Timothy, slaves of Christ Jesus, to all the saints in Christ Jesus who are in Philippi, with the overseers and deacons. Here it is not the saints...and the overseers and deacons.; rather, it is the saints...with the overcomers and deacons. This is highly significant in that it indicates in the local church the saints, the overseers, and the deacons are not three groups. The church has only one group, composed of all the saints (including the overseers and deacons), who are the components of a local church. This indicates further that in any locality there should be just one church with one group of people, comprising all the saints in that locality.
