Absurd seeming church names

Ever notice how some church names are downright unintelligible? Or read less like a welcoming handle, and more like a jumbled-together string of keywords from a website's meta tag?

Take these for example:

Assemblies Of God Faith Christian Fellowship
Sound Doctrine Missionary Temple of Praise
Apostolic Assembly Of The Faith In Christ Jesus
Christian Science Eighth Church Of Christ Scientist
Greater Solid Rock Church Of God In Christ
Mt. Zion Fire Baptized Holiness Church of God of the Americas
Praise All Day Church of the Redeemer Christ Our Everlasting King

It's almost as if there's a master list of select church jargon that gets assigned to some lottery balls, and the first four or five to pop up indicate the name of a new sect:

Here are some others that are funny for one reason or another:

Ark Of Safety Church Of God In Christ
Holiness Or Hell Church Of God In Christ
Boring United Methodist Church (Boring, MD)
The Entire Bible Church
C.R.A.C.K. House Ministries (Christ Resurrects After Crack Kills)
