"accretions of time"

Hello!

Could you what the "accretions of time more than biblical patterns" means in,

"It is true that certain forms of church life, accretions of time more than biblical patterns, may be rejected."

Does it mean that you don't grow to spend more time than some biblical models suggest?

Thank you for yoru time in advance.

Sincerely,

Tony
