I asked Rod to save this video for me a few days ago because it fits into so many things. It is a reminder of what happens when cheap quantity is more valued than real quality. Many churches went for quantity verses quality and I see basically the same thing happening in the spirits of those who went for the cheaper version of faith as is what is going on with China's cheap steel. The cheap steel vehicles start rusting out the moment they go on the road. In a few years the whole machine breaks down into a pile of useless metal rust. The formerly well made vehicles made with good steel from 50 and 60 years ago have a little rust but they are not fully rusted into a worthless heap.
Our spirits are pretty much the same way. If we grow in faith called by the holy spirit and God builds the foundations of our faith by and through his spirit that faith is long lasting and will hold firm through the years sustaining life even if the flesh gets a little worn. If one depends on the quantity version promoted by human precepts that faith is easily shaken and it becomes a basically worthless heap that trust in things that cannot sustain true life.
