If there is a need to start a church

One may think it is extreme when one hears Rev. Stephen Tong calling the young believers to start their own churches.

At times I may be stunned by his tone on the issue.

Nevertheless, what's becoming of the world today cannot be ignored anymore. There's another, Thom Rainer, on Janet Mefferd's 8/13/2013 show (@16:40min), who said that if one really cannot find a church of orthodox value, which is a stretch (hmm...perhaps not especially in New York City), then find a few believers and form a group/church.

In the past, it was always about attending the church your parents go. Then, it becomes attending the church that you find relevant to your lifestyle, now it's all kinds of things. I recall Tong's old answer to question regarding whether believers have to attend a church. That was a different case. That has to do with just simply looking for the "Best" church or not attending church. This, however, has to do with committing to a church, building a church. They are very different issues.

If I were to start a group/church, I must be aware of one tricky danger, that is the influence of those of the unorthodox churches. Whether it be financial support or even manual assistance. It may come to a point that these must be rejected, unless they are used without any affiliation to the contributing party, like one accepting the help of a Muslim or Mormon to carry one's luggage to the airport.
