So, I do agree that sometimes we can be carnal worrying about our image. Except in her case, she knew she was wrong and wasn't taking a stand against what was right.
That's a bit different than the church that supports the "gay" agenda. I think we can tarnish our image in the community in that instance.

I agree that we hve to guard our image. However, I really don't believe at all that renting the facilities from this church is affecting their image in any way at all. I am completely convinced that people see these at two completely and TOTALLY different church bodies - one having nothing to do with the other except they all worship in the same building.
