I am saying one can Glorify God without all the hype and buildings because the church is PEOPLE.
The building should Not be a focus.
By talking about the building so highly, we tend to glorify the building rather than God. That is a No No.
People who meet in a home or even outside a home ( as in poor countries they meet in open air fields ) can glorify God.
Don't over emphasize on the building and don't over spend on extra features, because all we need is a building, NOT a great looking, worlds-first, with revolving crosses..etc..etc..etc Use that money for ministry of the needy. If someone Glorifies God by looking at a massive building, he/she already lost the point. If someone Glorifies God by looking at a Christian who is behaving like one, that is what is counted on God's economy. -JD
