Laziness causes the house condition to deteriorate. Sometimes in ministry situations in the past I used to visit people’s houses. This was never easy for me because I believe that unless there is some specific reason for a personal visit people should come to the Church, especially in cultures where there is freedom to express one’s religion. (Justifiable reasons of course call for visits.) A few houses that I have visited have been in very poor condition, not because of poverty, but because of neglect. True Believers should look after their houses well.
