1 Corinthians 3:21
"Therefore let no men glory in men,
for all things are yours"
The Church is the very temple of God, because it is the society in which the Spirit of God dwells. "We are God's temple when we prepare ourselves to receive the Holy Spirit." But, if men introduce dissension and division into the fellowship of the Church, they destroy the temple of God.
They make it impossible for the Spirit to operate, and immediately bitterness enters the church, and love goes from it. The truth can neither be spoken nor heard rightly in that atmosphere. "Where love is, God is," but, where hatred and strife are, God stands at the door and knocks and receives no entry. The very badge of the Church is love for the brethren. He who destroys that love destroys the Church and thereby destroys the temple of God.
The Church will be reduced to a series of disconnected ruins. No building can stand firm on it's foundation if sections of it are removed. The Church's greatest strength is it's temple, where The Holy Spirit dwells. My friends, let us not glory in men; "Our Glory Is God!!"
