>> “Worshipping in a home Bible study is analagous to one of the Old Testament high places - places without God’s sanction that man chooses for himself, instead of God choosing for him.” <<

Nonsense!

Most of the gatherings mentioned in the Pauline epistles were in various believer’s homes. Christ said that he is there “whenever two or more of you are gathered in my name.”

The first century believers met in catacombs (graves) and in houses, in caves, anywhere they wouldn’t be caught in tortured.

Much like in China and other places today.

In WWII Christians had to meet in secret too, as only State Authorized Worship was permitted.

To say God forbids the gathering of believers in worship of Himself in ANY place is absolutely asinine.

Retract that stupid statement, please.

By WWII, I meant in Nazi Germany.
