AMERICA IS BUILDING CHURCHES AGAIN AND DECLINE HAS BOTTOMED OUT


America is building churches again, according to a leading construction data firm reported by the wall street journal.

Dodge data and analytics says that the construction of religious buildings,measured in square feet of new space peaked in 2002 and has been declining over since. It is set to hit 9.3 million square feet this year, massive decline of 8.2 percent since the peak and lowest since records began in 1967.
However, Dodge says, though spending on religious construction fell more than nine percent in monetary terms in 2014 against the previous year, the first eight months of 2015 have seen is rise 2.3 percent.
It suggest that while 2015 will see a further decline in square footage constructed, next year will see a rebound to 9.6 million square feet.
Dodge Chief economist Robert murray said he was "reasonably sure" a rebound is at hand, "given the improvement in the economy and the pickup in charitable giving".
However, he said that there were still factors working against church building. He said Dodge expects construction to reach 12.5 million square feet in 2020-still far from the levels seen in the late 1990s and early 2000s.
"The decline has been substantial,"murray said, adding that "a lot of the impediments toward a strong rebound in church construction are going to continue for the next few years at least".

Thats true. It's an antichrist program to outwit the few living churches in America and establish false religon based on christianity.

My church THE LORD'S CHOSEN @ Ijesha Bustop Expressway Lagos is always emphasizing on the closeness of rapture. Our focus is to win souls to Christ and ensure holiness within and without inpreparation of the appearing of God to take the righteous home. I invite u to come and hear the undiluted word of God that will preserve you in this sinful generation.
Also, any sickness, disease, or demonic afflictions instantly will bow as the Pastor makes prayer and declarations. In Chosen, there is so much power. Come and see.

This Zenographer guy sef.

Christ is not a Church. You seem to be projecting the lord's chosen more than u project Christ. And I sense a spirit of haughtiness in you. The feeling that u r better than others, its a wrong spirit and its not of God.
Self righteousness is a sin dear. If u feel u r better than other christians, then u r a cult.
