To: Dr. Eckleburg
[James Swan:] The Scriptures do not speak of joining a powerful visible institution, as judged by the world’s standards. Rather, the strength and splendor of the church is Christ and his Spirit that indwells His people everywhere. His people comprise a church that the world despises and seeks to destroy. To join this body is to join with those the world sees as fools.

AMEN! These passages are very powerful, Dr. E. Thanks so much for posting.
