God allows these ones in His "great house" so that the honorable vessels will cleanse themselves to be useful to Him and prepared for all good works.
You obviously missed these verses due to your judgmental attitude, and instead of cleansing yourself from those at LSM, (read UntoHim's post #148) you have decided to bribe your conscience by using every dishonorable vessel you can find to condemn the whole House of God.

Ohio,
That is a good verse. However, the process of that verse is clear "If therefore anyone
cleanses himself from these, he will be a vessel unto honor, sanctified, useful to the Master, prepared for every good work".
Wouldn't you agree that we should cleanse ourselves from Beyonce worship, Bakker waterbottles, unscriptural teachings of Anglicanism, and the Dance shows of Osteen's church?
We don't need to condemn the whole house... just these aspects.
