Their self-anointing as the Church of Acts falls short of reality.
Their illusion that they are the last step in the way back to the Church of Acts is sadly too real to them.
God is not finished yet taking us back to the original church of Acts.

Great post!
I would disagree with one statement. I don't believe God is ever "taking His church back". I believe the Church is ever moving forward. God builds on what has already been established. Today's Church is more of what God wants than it's ever been. Tomorrow it will be more so.
