This gathering is a place to serve and honor one another (Galatians 5:13).
Meeting together is also ' survival classes ' in order to come through the coming great tribulation of Revelation 7:14,9.

Very good post ^ above ^ and reminded me of Jesus' New commandment for us as found at John 13:34-35.
We are Now to have the same self-sacrificing love for others as Jesus has.
In other words, we are Now to love neighbor ' more ' than self. More than the Golden Rule.

I find we are to 'walk by faith' ( 2nd Cor. 5:7 ) - just so we don't drive that way ! ( kidding of course )
So, our spiritual walk should be by 'faith' ( Not credulity /blind faith ) but as found at Matthew 24:14; 28:18-20; Acts 1:8.
Romans 10:13-15 pretty much sums things us for us.

I must admit I never heard the ^ above ^ before.
Rather, to me God is depending on us to show up at His house of worship.

I go to church because it makes me feel better each time I go. It's inspiring and the message is always good. The music is good. I notice that when I skip church even just a few times, I start feeling negative again. It depends on the church because I have gone to many churches, and none of them had ever made me wanted to convert. I finally became a Christian this year and actually just got baptized a few weeks ago.

Congratulations! I also go to church because it makes me feel better each time. When I walk out of church I feel like I am recharged for the week ahead.

Rom 8:19

For the anxious longing of the creation ( EVEN THE STARS) waits eagerly for the revealing of the sons of God.


AND JESUS SAID ..
Luk 10:21

At that same time Jesus was filled with the joy of the Holy Spirit, and he said, “O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, thank you for hiding these things from those who think themselves wise and clever, and for revealing them to the childlike. Yes, Father, it pleased you to do it this way.


AND THE CHILD LIKE .... WILL NOT BE A SATISFACTORY PERSON!! THEY WILL EACH WILL BE EXCEPTIONAL, ALL IN THER OWN WAY !!
