Hello Smidge,
For some reason I strongly wanted to take the time to interpret this for you. What God is showing:
God is showing that a particular church is of a carnal mindset, which could possibly include accusations, sharp rebuke, or gossip. Also could also represent there is betrayal and backstabbing. The Bottom line is the foundation is corrupted and speaks of people being spiritually dead. People who only want to hear words of encouragement to feel good about their life and themselves. They need to spiritually grow.
This causes you to be broken. But as He reveals words of revelation knowledge or truth, God is separating you from the rest. God is saying that there is the need to be broken before you can be used to your full potential in Christ and produce the fragrance that he is looking for. This strengthens you to be a spiritual house in the Kingdom of God. A strong support that can be used to continue building thoroughly and effectively.
