The Necessity of our Service, Our Attendance

I, Beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service and be not conformed to this world; but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. Romans 12:1-2.

When we freely and truly come together to worship our Lord and Savior in spirit and truth (John 4:24), It is truly an outward showing of our belief and love for the Lord. The bible teaches us to consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works; Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another; and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching. Hebrews 10:24-25. Some do forsake the assembling together and thus forsake the teachings of God. When we forsake the command of God we have forsaken God.

Regular attendance is necessary because we need all the help we can get: surely something will be said or done to help us spiritually. 2 Timothy 3:16; Hebrews 4:12-15; Galatians 5: 13-26; Psalm 1:2-5; 46:1; 121: 1-2; 133:1. We should attend regularly and learn to enjoy it, for if we do not enjoy being with the people of God in worship here, we would not enjoy heaven even if we go there. Our presence also will help to build up and strengthen the church.

No congregation can grow without attendance. There are many things we may not be able to do, but we can attend if we’re not ill. Let us all do our part to make the church stronger. Keep the faith!

We should be present at all the services, thus showing our love for the Lord and one another.
