We have already pointed out that the church is seen in Scripture as the gathering of believers and their children and that the presence of unbelievers is thought of as an unusual and exceptional thing (I Cor. 14:23).
Nabanggit na ang church ayon sa Biblia ay pagtitipon ng mga mananampalataya at pati na ang kanilang mga anak, ang presensiya ng mga di mananampalataya ay hindi karaniwan (I Cor. 14:23).
