Has truth left the church at price of survival?

OK, lets be clear here, I'm not thinking of any one particular church, denomination, instituation!
But is it possible for some, to love their own good name, their financial needs, etc, that they will hurt, exclude, folks they feel are a threat?
Will some lie, blackwall, folks who might protest?
Or even ignore the needs of some who they feel havent given enough, or what they require, to them?
In this "My Journey" I am asking hard questions, questions others have brought to me, and I have fallen over personaly, in my 27 years of ministry.
To be clear for all readers, as a worker with London City Mission, I'm in no way talking about my mission between the lines!
This is a general question, do christion instituation seek survival more than , what pleases God?
Do individual christians seek their own welfare, benefit, before what pleases God?
I feel many do, and this should hurt us all. It should hurt us, because it hurts God, and other christians.

Thank you, I just try on here to raise hard questions that we christians, the church, needs to look at, but often ignore!
