That building in all it's splendor is worth absolutely jack squat, if it's empty. If that church was truly on fire, it wouldn't matter what the building was like. It could be a high school gym and and be packed in for three services, if the church was truly on fire. And I don't think that it matters what Jesus is preached inside that building; I do think that Jesus needs to be preached by the church, when they are not sitting in a pew. In the high tech world of today, people can sing to God in their car or on a mountain top thanks to CDs; they can hear any pastor they want to hear thanks to the internet; and they can read God's word for themselves thanks to the printing press; but they can't get love from any of those. They need the church. They need the hugs, the prayers, and the discipline that is only offered by a group of people devoted to serving each other and Christ,i.e. The Church.
