In the first century do you suppose individuals immersed on Pentecost avoided assembling with others immersed or do you guess they met with the others as often as possible? Do you suppose when they entered the area in which they were meeting they sat as far away from each other as possible or do you guess they may have tried to be as close as possible? Unless influenced by outside pressures do you suppose the left as soon as they could or do you suppose they lingered as long as possible?
So. . . do you suppose those early Christians met as often as possible, sat as close to each other as reasonable and stayed as long as they could or were like we are? Attend as little as possible, stayed as far away from each other as the room allowed and left as soon as the final "amen?"
Hebrews 10:23-25
Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful. And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.
