Chris.
When the condition of the Church was good, Biblical and the members were living the right kind of lives, we read that the Church increased. Sometimes we attempt all kinds of "Church Growth" programmes, but if the Church membership are not careful and concerned about their lifestyle, aligning it with God's Word, then the Church simply will not grow.
