Chris.
The Lord Jesus Loves His Church. This is a Truth that every True Church needs to hold on to and value very much. Sometimes we become exhuberant in our Love for the Church whilst having an incorrect concept of what the Church is. This can cause all kinds of misunderstandings and hurts. The Church primarily is people of whom Jesus is the Head.
