Did God call us to build large church buildings with large attendance and money? NO, GOD HAS NEVER COMMISSIONED US ONE TIME IN THE BIBLE TO DO THIS. Do you know that many a pastor has sold his soul out to the bank. He must have the money to pay those high church payments and its operation. In order to do so, he has got to compromise the Word of God in order to get the money. But where is God and the power of the God?

I disagree with the premise that you can’t make the budget on the truth. Our church has been in a growth phase since inception, and GOD has funded four buildings in that process. We sit debt free and we preach an uncompromised word.

In the New Testament, we see that a lot of the churches met in homes. Maybe all of them did, because the Jerusalem saints who met in the temple also met ‘from house to house.’ There is no example of a church in the New Testament of a church using its money to build a church building, but many churches spend a large percentage of the budget on this.

I agree with what you say.
There are a lot of talents and gifts wasted in large churches.
Why can’t a church be satisfied with what they have and if the attendance gets to large, start a new church as part of a missions outreach and train there people to the fact as they grow they will encourage people to us their gifts -
