What is “Going to Church” Coming to Worship and take communion? Meeting to study the Bible? Getting together with other Christians?

What is “Going to Church”Hebrews 10:23-26

“….not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together….”

“….consider one another in order to stir up love and good works”

What is “Going to Church”Those times when we gather together:

Do something the church is charged withTo show that we love one anotherTo help each other do good works

The Evidences of FailureIgnorance of church mattersNon-participation in church worksWorldly habits outweigh spiritual habitsWe” verses “they” mindset

“I won’t go to hell for missing “church””

You won’t mature spiritually for missing “church”

For this reason many are weak and sick among you, and many sleep.

1 Corinthians 11:30 You will be lost if you don’t grow

“I won’t go to hell for missing “church””

You won’t mature spiritually for missing “church”

You won’t go to heaven if you put God 2nd place

You won’t go to heaven if you don’t love brethren

A Matter of the HeartAssembly attendance is a matter of heart

Assembly is a sign of Spiritual life

God can tell a reason from an excuse

Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord comes, who will both bring to light the hidden things of darkness and

reveal the counsels of the hearts. 1 Corinthians 4:5

Elisha’s VesselsII Kings 4:1-7
