"Lets get together and clean the house of God on Saturday"... nonsense, and against new covenant teaching IMO.

Why? Why in the world have a BEEF with calling it "house of God"? I never understood why people are so critical. That is such a small insignificant issue to have a beef over.
So what if they call it the house of God. You know why it's called that? Do you know why the Jewish Temple was called that? Because God met His people there. Why make a big deal out of that when there are so much more important issues to attend to?
BTW Notice they referred to it as a HOUSE not as God? Even that statement recognizes it's just a building. It's not that big a deal

Because it (a man made structure) is not God's house according to new covenant scripture, WE(the church) are now the House and Tabernacle of the living God, that's why. So when folks go on and on about how nice Gods house looks, or how we need to keep the lights on at Gods house, or somebody needs to vacuum Gods house today, it is nonsense and unscriptural, according to the new covenant. That's why.
"Better slow down, you're in Gods House!"
"Better watch yourself, you're in Gods house"!
"Better not talk like that, you're at Gods House!"
"Did you see the way they were acting in the House of Gawd!!!"
And you say why make a big deal over it? So who actually is?:This kinda nonsensical talk goes on all the time. I hear "Gods House" referring to the structure about 5-10x during the first ten minutes of church meetings, almost every time.
Give me a break. Call it Gods house all day long, but at the end of the day, its not, we are.

Sister, I want to say something to you, and I hope you receive it as I am saying it, in love.
If these precious ones are happy to attend, please don't quit. Please let them be filled and delivered in Jesus name.
There is nothing more important than your children.

The tabernacle in the OT was also man made and yet it was also called house of God...its not that big a deal.

Re: Come Out Of Her My People
Stephen, its not that big a deal. Dont get all bent out of shape over it when there are important battles to fight like reaching lost souls. Shaking your fist like an angry islamic shouting God is Great! Death to the ones that call it House of God is a waste :-)

Re: Come Out Of Her My People
I'll tell u what, lets make this simple. U show a list of all the new covenant scripture that refers to a man made structure or bldg as "The House of God or Gods House". And I'll show a list of the new covenant scriptures that refers to the body of Christ as "The House of God" or Gods House. Then we'll compare. Deal?
Then we can talk about why u have no nt scripture for something that's "not a big deal".

I think you are missing the point of what is really being said here.
