The Church vs the church -

Let's get this clear, the Church (capital 'C') is people "built" into a holy 
"nation" by Christ Jesus.  The church (lower case 'c') is an institution of man 
that includes buildings, budgets, programs, paid leaders, etc.  The latter (church) 
should only exist in so much as it supports the Church (Christ's people), otherwise, it 
is worthless to Christ.

Christ's Church exists for the benefit of "non-members."  To be "salt and 
light" for the earth, not to impress more salt or shine light within.  Therefore, 
"Go" is the operative word for the Church (His people).
