(Speaking of Heb 10:24-25)This passage calls us to regular gathering together as a church community. It could be easy to assume that this simply means that we all need to be together so we can worship together, but the beginning of that passage says otherwise. In verse 24, the author frames for us why we need to gather together: in order to push one another to 'love and good deeds.' This strikes us as a more intimate expectation. This call reveals an awareness of each other's lives and an intimacy with how those lives are lived. We are specifically encouraged to gather together so we can be in each other's business.
