During this Sermon Series, we have focused on the fact that the Christian life is “better together.”
In our individualistic culture, it has become increasingly common for people to feel secure in only worshiping God privately, rather than corporately (through organized worship services/gatherings). Private worship includes: personal music, TV/Radio Services , Podcasts, nature hikes, etc.
Mark 12: 29-31 29 “The most important one,” answered Jesus, “is this: ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. 30 Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’ 31 The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no commandment greater than these.”
Leviticus 23:3 (NLT) * See also Hebrews 4: 9-10 “You may work for six days each week, but on the seventh day all work must come to a complete stop. It is the LORD’s Sabbath day of complete rest, a holy day to assemble for worship. It must be observed wherever you live.”
"When you meet [for worship], 1 Corinthians 14:26 "When you meet [for worship], one will sing, another will teach, another will tell some special revelation God has given, one will speak in tongues, while another will interpret what is said. But everything that is done must be useful to all and build them up in the Lord."
1 Corinthians 16:2 "On every Lord’s Day, each of you should put aside some amount of money in relation to what you have earned and save it for this offering."
Matthew 18:20 Acts 1:14 “For where two or three are gathered together in my Name, there am I with them.” - Jesus ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Acts 1:14 “(All the believers) joined together constantly in prayer.”
