Some churches believed if they built it, they would come. So, they built it, but they didn’t come. The results – a field of dreams became a nightmare. Some pastors have put their church into insurmountable debt by following such a philosophy. They claimed that God was leading and people followed but, in the end, all was lost. Their affection was for a building and not the body.
Does the Bible address this? Glad you asked.
Matthew 7:15
Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves.
Whoever walks in integrity walks securely, but he who makes his ways crooked will be found out.
Is your pastor about the building or about the body? Examine this one and give it some consideration.
