"let us not neglect our MEETING TOGETHER, as some people do. Encourage one another, especially now that the Day of Jesus return is drawing near."
Some people never go to Church, or meet together with other believer's. Some people only go to Church on Easter Sunday or Christmas day. They believe that they can be Christians without going to Church or meeting with other Christians. What do you believe? The One Truth Today is very clear and unambiguous. We should not neglect our MEETING TOGETHER, but encourage one another, especially now that the day of Jesus Christ's return in drawing near! It is not good to be a "closet Christian". True faith is not a secret and impossible to hide from others. We live in a country and at a time when it is possible to meet and worship with our brothers and sisters. Until the Lord's return, we need to keep MEETING TOGETHER!
We are not to forsake one another or neglect gathering together with one another. If you avoid church you have no excuse. His peace is to be found with other believer's and there is a great joy in worshiping together. Your spirit can be lifted by like believer's who join with you in song and prayer. They can hold us accountable for our walk with the Lord. They reinforce the Word of God and His Laws. No man is an island unto himself and you are no exception. There is safety and security in being a part of a body of believer's. Keep MEETING TOGETHER!
The outside world is becoming more dangerous and evil every day. The Sanctuary of the Church is impenetrable. God's house is a Rock to Stand On. Decisions for you life require good counselors and they can be found in your Church. If you draw away into seclusion it can be a lonely and depressing place. Instead maintain your first Love and your first Joy of worshiping the Lord by meeting with like minded Christians. Jesus Christ the Lord God is returning for us soon and He tells us in this scripture that we should not neglect our MEETING TOGETHER!
