"If we do not have the Spirit of God, it were better to shut the churches, to nail up the doors, to put a black cross on them, and say, 'God have mercy on us!' ... I think I speak not too strongly when I say that a church in the land without the Spirit of God is rather a curse than a blessing."
~ Charles Haddon Spurgeon
A bit harsh, but probably very true. A church without the Spirit of God is not really God's church. A building or group of people that pretend to be "a chruch" dishonours God.
