Note: We find a few that are standing alone because they say there is no Spiritual Church. They can find no Church without fault. The Church of God is not composed of one member, but many. A few disobedient ones do not destroy the Church or its name. It just adds more work to the Church. A Church that will not raise its standard of perfection will never become the last day Church. We must all proclaim the saving message to the world as God said He would pour out His Spirit on ALL flesh.
