(b) a community of believers.
It's unfortunate that we can't find another name and use the name "Church" to refer also to the place where we worship, because not all who attend Church are necessarily "Christians", that is Believers. We become Christians when we say something like, "I confess to God that I am a sinner. I believe that the Lord Jesus Christ died for my sins on the cross. I believe that God raised Him from the dead. I now repent of my sins. I receive Him as my Saviour. I confess Him as Lord." Why not do that today if necessary?

a. House of Prayer is just grazing the surface. And I'm NOT referring to THE Church, but to the true church. The church that Jesus Christ is at the head of.

House of God, House of prayer and order, and holiness where community of believers gather together to worship God. Church can also give services to the needy.

Yeah, I'm an atheist, but like most real-world, but few Y!A atheists, I have a soft spot for the Christians. You are people like everyone else, after all!
