You'll never have the quality of personal relationships in a 'church' like you do in a small group. The early church consisted of small groups, not buildings that the religious professionals called 'churches'. Modern day 'churches' are no more than businesses attempting to grow their particular denomination (insert money joke here).

This can be sometimes true, but not always.

That's because the Romans would kill them if they practiced their faith.

This is true only of small portion of churches. Most churches obviously want to grow their congregations, that is their mission; however, it is not money that drives this. The more money they take in, the more they minister to. There is no "money" in churches. What comes in goes out in ministry.
