If he lets SOMEONE keep him from worshipping God

I am accused of SPIN and TWIST yet the church insists on equating worship with church attendance. The only statement to support church attendance is not forsaking the gathering of the saints. Worship is not in that sentance. Worship is completely independant of church attendance!

I'll agree with you on this, Nate. Church attendance is one way to engage in communal worship, but it is not the only way.

Worship is keeping Gods commandments. I do not agree with your take on Hebrews 10:25. I don't think that just gathering with friends and studying the bible is what this passage is talking about. So by obeying Gods command to attend a worship service is one form of worship.

You never answered my question: what is the point of Timothy and Titus letters if all God wanted was for us to study scripture in our homes?
