Remember churches carry a spirit

The Choosing Of A Bride

Now, you must pray over the church that you are fellowshiping in. Remember, churches carry a spirit.
Now, I don't want to be critical. But I realize that I'm an old man, and I got to leave here, one of these days. And I've got to answer at the Day of the Judgment for what I say tonight or any other time. And I, therefore, I've got to be dead earnest and truly convicted.
But, you go into a church, and if you'll watch the behavior of that church, you just watch the pastor awhile, and you'll usually find that the church acts like the pastor. Sometimes, I wonder if we just don't get one another's spirit in the stead of the Holy Spirit.

Daily Bread John 10:15
As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.
