So, while making my normal drive to take the kids to school the other morning, I took note of the number of churches I saw. Mind you, my town is rather small. population: 8,000 as of July last year. here is a map, courtesy of google, of all the churches in town. (can't upload image to photobucket, work won't allow it.)
First things first.
You did not pass by a church.
A church is a called out assembly for a specific reason.
You passed by many buildings that the church meets in.
Now to your question, "How many churches are necessary"?
If Jesus is who He said He was then there is only one Church.
He said I will build my Church, and the gates of Hell shall not prevail against it.
If it is "my Church" as He claimed it can only be one.
But there can be many called out assemblies, who are doing His work.
So there are only two churches.
The Church that Jesus built.
AND
Those that pretend to be the church that Jesus built.
God Bless,
