Mike, that means they (Tongues and Baptism) are WORKS that cannot be truly gauged and allows impostors to sit on pews, fabricating the worst type of hypocrisy on the Planet. I have also watched countless people speak in Tongues and never come back to church again.
The Fruits of the Spirit are evident in a persons everyday lifestyle, not in Tongues or any other manifestation that really means absolutely, nothing. And that includes what a person does in Church on Sunday. It doesn't matter how loud you worship, how good you sing, and how holy you look.
IMO, God doesn't go to a Church, God goes everywhere, as isolating God to our group or idea is impossible.

How does a person's individual choices and actions have anything to do with the Gospel message?
It's a lot like the fight between Hamas and Israel. There are radicals in Israel, but you gauge a country's integrity by how the government handles issues. Israel arrested the ones responsible for burning the Palestinian youth. The Palestinians who murdered the Israeli youths were lauded as heroes.
Just because people misrepresent Christianity, doesn't make Christianity the enemy.
