>> Acts 5:42 And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ.<<

You do understand that those were still the Jews right?

>> They went to places big enough for them when they got too big....like when they had 3000 added in a day.<<

And where did you learn that? I would suppose you would also look down on the home churches my daughter just helped set up in Haiti? I suppose because they don’t have the pews, the preacher, the organ, the formal format for the service but simply meet as families in someone’s home to pray, study, and praise God that they are to be looked down on as not really Christians in your mind? I would suggest you re think what you’ve been taught as to what a Christian meeting really can be and I think should be.

So, you have a scripture someplace that says the Court of the Gentiles in the Temple does not exist?

And you think Jesus didn’t mean it when He cleansed the Temple and said, “My House shall be called a House of Prayer for the NATIONS (Gentiles), but you have made it a den of thieves!”?

I actually think that you are a little group and it might fit in a house, and I think a bigger group needs a big group sized building.

The Bible says were to praise God with everything imaginable, including musical instruments, which would include an organ.

Do you use musical instruments in your worship?
