Did you know that there are a number of passages in the Bible that tell Christians to meet together to fellowship and worship.\u00a0 It’s not only good to have church, but you could argue that a person isn’t a very good Christian if they avoid going to church on a regular basis.<\/p>\n
Of course just going to church doesn’t make you a Christian anymore than standing in a garage makes you a car.\u00a0 However, a real Christian, who cares about Jesus and the Bible always looks forward to meeting with fellow believers to be encouraged in his work for the faith.<\/p>\n
And that’s so important.\u00a0 Because even more often than it talks about worshiping together, the Bible tells Christians to preach God’s Good News to the world.\u00a0 And if you’re not doing that, well what good are you to God.\u00a0 That’s our most important task.\u00a0 A Christian who doesn’t go to church is like an athlete who doesn’t go to practice.\u00a0 But a Christian who doesn’t share his faith is like a firefighter that refuses to put out fires.\u00a0 The first will just lose you the game, but the second will cause lives to be lost.<\/p>\n
