Today, there are many old nominal religious gathering characterized by pride, selfishness and division. Their gathering seems religious but not spiritual. God cannot bless their gathering. Jesus’ presence is not in their midst since they are not gathering in unity.
“For where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them." Matt.18:20. This promise of God’s presence is conditional. God approves a small gathering only if the two or three gathered in His name. In the day of Pentecost, the Holy Spirit manifested Himself because they gathered in unity.
The faction in the religious gathering means you are inviting and welcoming other spirit’s presence rather than God’s. The promise of God’s presence is only for those churches who gather in unity.
We can plant a character building church inside this big assembly. But we must remember that a missionary is a model so don’t begin the work of church planting anywhere else, begin it within yourself.
