BRAKING THE BABYLONIAN BARRIER

BREAKING THE BABYLONIAN BARRIER.
Jesus Christ, has changed the paradigm of the place of worship but Nigerian churches are still tied to going to a place for worship. Church is not a place you go to but who you're.
"Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.  Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.   Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.   But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.   God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth." John 4:20‭-‬24.
Where did we get the philosophy and the ideology of building cathedral, basilica and pyramid etc? Simply put from Nimrod. "God... said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth." Gen.9:1. God has a worldwide PURPOSE for the whole earth. "Cush begot Nimrod and he became a mighty one in the earth." Gen.10:8. Nimrod brought another ideology of STAGNATION to counter God's Worldwide PURPOSE by localizing the people on earth. "And they said, go to, let us build a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth." Gen.11:4.
God said, fill the earth but counter idea says, don't let's scattered around the earth. Jesus said, go ye... but the building which we've idolized kept us to the local church. Have you ask yourself why Jesus Christ during His earthly ministry didn't erected any cathedral, basilica or pyramid? It's because God can't be worship is a building built with brick. What's the essence of building a cathedral that the worshippers hearts are not consecrated? It would not be in Jerusalem anymore nor Samaria but the true worshippers shall worship the father in the spirit and truth. BABYLONIAN ideology is the reason why global evangelism is not being propagated. You as a person is a church not the cathedral and our coming together either on Sunday or any of the week days to fellowship is what bible enjoined us not to forsake. The most important place of worship is your heart. If you go to Jerusalem, you're just going for picnic not for the purpose of worship. Am not against erecting a meeting place for fellowship but it is against God's purpose for church to keep building cathedral, basilica, pyramid etc when souls are perishing in sin daily. It's those who are redeemed that will be rapture not the building that used our lifetime to build. This is a clarion call for mental shift and paradigm shift to the churches in Nigeria.
