Stirring and Being Stirred
Hebrews 10:24-25
24 And let us consider one another to provoke unto
love and to good works:
25 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.
More Americans say they are Christians than attend church. The difference represents an obstacle to the spiritual maturity of the Body of Christ. The writer to the Hebrews draws a distinct connection between the “assembling of ourselves together” and the love, good works, and encouragement of Christians.
The writer names something we are to do and something we are not to do. We are to consider how to contribute to one another’s spiritual growth and we are not to exempt ourselves from meeting with the Body of Christ. The connection is apparent: It is in meeting together for fellowship, instruction, worship, and service that we “stir up love and good works” and encourage (exhort) one another. As the end of the age looms, and the return of Christ draws near, we need all the “stirring up” and encouragement we can get. Are you intimately involved in your church—stirring and being stirred by fellow believers? It’s God’s plan for your spiritual growth.
The physical presence of other Christians is a
source of incomparable joy and strength to the
believer. ~ Dietrich Bonhoeffer

Good religious post content. Photo is very beautiful. I appreciate you. Thanks @deathlyhorror
Todos somos necesario en la iglesia desde el que barre hasta el lider de ella es bueno ver que sus miembros tienen interes por ir y asi motivar a los demas.
if it is true, the true leaders never miss church, they are the image, the encouragement that others need to continue in this race for salvation and to rescue more souls for Christ.
So beautiful religious content. Your daily sharing God's speech impressed us all. God loves them who follow his rules. I appreciate your great work.
The reality is that in a church where everyone is aware that being present encourages everyone to be more united and happy working for the benefit of God, which is that souls are not lost.
Every religious people are good. Thanks sir,
nicely present it...
I appreciate it..
I like your religious content. You are proclaiming the truth. God bless you.
Going to sanctify the festivals corresponds to one of the commandments of the law of God. In addition to fulfilling, your spirit is strengthened by the diverse readings and songs.
You get tools that will allow you to expand the word of God.
Great insight. Being a part of the body of Christ is so fulfilling.
I like such a religious post.
