A church that preaches the Bible cover to cover, puts Jesus first, exalts God, and obeys God's commands. Throw in love for each other and for the lost and you get a very good church.
FYI, when I say love, I don't mean the saccharine love of churches that won't speak the truth because it might hurt someone's feelings or hurt attendance. I mean the kind of strong love that Jesus gave that included speaking strongly against sin, but encouraging to repent, turn back to Christ, and live a fulfilling, God-centered life. Supporting a lie or sin is never loving.
