The Bible does not tell believers to meet together for the sake of meeting together but in order to build each other up. The vast majority of Sunday services do nothing of the sort because people just sit in their pews, listen to the sermon and sing when they are told to. When they do speak it is usually after the service has finished and is often a pack of lies. I am well aware that there are exceptions to this but in general they are few and far between.
The majority of those in the last days church would be lukewarm, wealthy, complacent and would be vomited into tribulation. A high percentage of professing Christians deny that the Bible is the inspired Word of God. Many even deny that Jesus is God.

No need to take a poll. All one need to do is study the scriptures and check around the churches. Ask the Lord, He will tell you. As long as we look for some kind of pay for what we do, as long as we want to get something from God in some kind of exchange, we are like the merchants. If you want to be rid of the commercial spirit, then by all means do all you can in the way of good works, but do so solely for the praise of God. Live as if you did not exist. Expect and ask nothing in return. Then the merchant inside you will be driven out of the temple God has made. Then God alone dwells there. See! This is how the temple is cleared: when a person thinks only of God and honors him alone. Only such a person is free and genuine. Democracy has no roll to play in this.

Whatever....!
It's a fact that only about 5% of church goers are really born again and the other 95% goes "with the flow" and don't even have a clue why the church should not be an institution for social events. Sad story, but that's the way it is. It's all part of "democracy", the uninformed masses rule the church with their majority votes....

Yes, that's what churches look and sound like these days: Kentucky Fried Chicken outlets. Take it any way you want.

The homos, the perverts, the rapists, the Democrats, the Liberals, and Hillary Clinton ALL love democracy. See, democracy brings socialism because the people vote to steal from other people. You cannot avoid the end-result of socialism.
You don't negotiate with terrorists or blackmailers because when you do, you give value to their crimes. You encourage more people to become blackmailers and terrorists because they profit from it. They can get what they're looking to get from Liberals because Liberals are ignorant.
If you give money to someone who kidnaps one of your children, if you give them a million dollars, then you motivate them to kidnap your next kid. But Liberals don't have the intelligence to understand any of this.
Democracy is left-wing, a lot of people don't realize that.
"Democracy" is when a man and a woman on a deserted island voting on sleeping arrangements. "Democracy" is two wolves and a sheep voting to determine which one gets eaten.

Creflo Dollar has two Rolls-Royce;s (which he tells his congregation were given to him -- the church purchased the first one for him). He flies in a $5 million private jet to his speaking engagements in the US to Europe (the church also owns a Gates Learjet. Estimated value: $985,000). Dollar met his wife at West Georgia College in Carrollton and graduated in 1984 with a bachelor's degree in education. They have five children, three girls and two boys. He lives in a $1 million home behind iron gates in an upscale Atlanta neighborhood and owns another worth $1.27 million). The church has amassed a fortune in real estate, mostly in College Park. Like other word faith teachers Dollar is often accompanied by bodyguards in public.
