in No more clergy? on PRAY|THE|REVOLUTION
"Oh, and regarding the idea that we don’t need buildings. I’m good with meeting in a field somewhere with a few hundred other worshipers. But, if it rains, is below 40 degrees, is above 100 degrees, snows, is very windy or if lightening is striking anywhere near, we better get indoors. So, yep, we need buildings!"
what a response, God have mercy on us all. The church leaders only teach 2 sins: 1) Forsake not the assembling of yourselves together in Heb 10 and the 2nd: Malachi's tithe message. They teach not forsaking so as to bind the money traps upon the not so discerning people. And it works as is shown throughout America.
I agree in part with Viola. The clergy and the debt ridden church buildings need to cease. They have bound the people. But we have a promise for the sheep: we know them by their fruits and these voices of the strangers the sheep will not follow.

We can't do it alone... we can't do much of it with small groups and no resources. We need God's leaders to advance with great strength.
Regarding the issue of buildings, it's not really a spiritual issue it's a practical issue. It's kind of a silly argument that we don't need buildings anymore. Should we send our kids to schools that have no building to meet in? Should we only eat at restaurants that have no roof? Should we only shop at open air markets? Silly.
