But in none of the verses you have above, is the church ever referred to as a building. Indeed churches in the new testament indicated an assemblage, gathering of Christians. The church at Corinth, the church at Ephesus did not refer to a building in those geographic location right? Paul was referring to the Christian believers as a body of people.

I believe that the gathering together of Christians is of vital important to the body of believers. I just don't think that entails build a huge building, and paying a guy who went to seminary a enormous salary, and a house on a gold course.

I don't condemn at all a man who earns his living as a preacher. I have to answer to God for myself. And others will be called to account for themselves. I do tend to believe that money has corrupted Christianity in America. But I know I must be concerned with the beam in my own eyes, but for I criticize the speck that had entered into the eye of Christianity as a whole.
