Churches are about the power and ideas of men.
You don’t send anyone to a church institution to learn about our savior.
If you want to study our savior, you prayerfully read the word of God.
This is true across the entire Christian spectrum.
Church institutions take the young that are “on fire” for the Lord, and soak them in ice water.

e-s, if you see the church as an institution, then I would agree with you. However, if see the church as the ἐκκλησία ("the assembly"), the "body of Christ", and the "kingdom of priests", then I would disagree.

learn about our savior. The lower case "s" prompts my question. Do you believe this:
And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God, begotten of the Father before all worlds; God of God, Light of Light, very God of very God; begotten, not made, being of one substance with the Father, by whom all things were made.

Yeah, who'd be dumb enough to expect Jesus to be about His Father's house?
