I love the Lord's church for many reasons, not the least of which is because it is a planned institution.
I'm going to make a statement and I want you to know that I mean no disrespect to anyone. In fact, I love everyone. My job is very much a "people job," and I love every opportunity I have to point people to the Scriptures and to have people help me in my spiritual journey to heaven. Here's the statement: I'm not interested in any religious system that has its roots in men. While it may be sincere, culturally accepted, or even traditionally significant to my family or close friends, if you can't find the religious system of which you're a part in the Bible, then I just don't feel comfortable trusting it for my salvation (cf. Mat. 7:21-23).
