do not forsake the assembling

<< < (2/4) > >>

Joel:
I like Ray's statement about the salt of the earth being scattered, Also there must have been times in the wilderness, when John the baptist eating locust and wild honey, felt like a loner also.

I think it is a human tendency to look to and rely on another physical human being over the invisible. When we come out of the church and find those around us do not understand us and our new found beliefs we feel alone. This in turn causes us to seek out what we realize brought us to these beliefs in the first place, God. I believe that this separation from other believers may be a means to bring us to reliance on and a close relationship with the one upon whom we depend for all things. As we develop a strong trust and confidence in God, then I believe He often will bring someone into our life that we can talk to and if not share our beliefs at least will listen to us. My daughter is that for me now, though she is not seeking the truth she is very receptive to it and listens to me when I need someone to talk to. Just wanted to give my perspective on this.

Cypress:
Can someone point me to Rays article on this topic? I was thinking about this the other day, since this verse was thrown at my mom recently by a family member.

Kat:

Hi Cypress,

There is a section 'Not Forsaking the Assembling of Ourselves Together' in article #11 'The Depth of Satan -- Who is Antipas?' at this link  http://bible-truths.com/lake11.html
