There is not a single place in the scriptures where God told any Christian to build a temple that was a replica of the Temple, or any building...That's because the real church is the congregation, not the building...There is no requirement by God to build a building to worship in...

Christians are the Temple of God...That's where you will find God, not in a building...

And no where in Scripture does it say to rely on Scripture alone although it does clearly state to rely on both what is written and what is passed down by tradition.

Scripture does clearly condemn the heresy of Korah (you know, the "the priesthood of all believers is all we need" trash), does clearly say that those who throw Scripture in the garbage can are condemned, and does clearly state that we are to obey our prelates.

So, when someone wants to play, ". . . not a single place in Scripture . . ." games they without fail start by pretending that others should accept the lie of "Scripture Alone" and follow that up with deliberately ignoring what is in Scripture.

People who throw Scripture they don't want to accept in the garbage can and ignore a great deal of what they pretend to accept are nothing but tired old jokers with nothing like a real faith in Christ or Scripture. After all, they've blasphemed the Holy Spirit by insisting the Holy Spirit could not and did not protect Scripture from the inclusion of error so it's impossible for them to be led by that same Holy Spirit.

Christians reject the fundamental premise that "Scripture Alone" applies to the construction of churches or anything else. Therefore the balance of any argument based on that lie is worthless.
