Is the Church Irrelevant?

Begin with the truth that there are no chapters nor verses found in the scriptures for about a thousand years after the final holding of the Catholic Cannon of Scripture.

Of course. I don't believe that I had isolated any verse as a single unit of thought.

And reading over this last page I fail to find any love of the brethren in your replies. You appear as of the world, accusing others of the same guilt you bear.

I suppose that you may have misconstrued my dogmatic stance against tradition as being hateful, but I assure you, that's not the case.

Please take this in the love it is offered. Not condemnation but, maybe self correction?

What is it that I need to be corrected about?

There is actually enough Scripture that says otherwise.
Things like be of one mind, etc.

Yes, but there were some minor issues that Christians were allowed to disagree on, such as their dietary customs or adherence to a sabbath day. The only thing Paul said was to not let it become a stumbling block to others.

Clearly there is a reference to places of worship made with hands.

The only places of worship to speak of were synagogues and pagan temples. Can you identity a place of worship that was specific to Christians?
