“Attendance Vital” by Neville Buchanan


Hebrews 10:24–25 (ESV) — 24 And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, 25 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.

One of Satan’s strongest weapons is to remove Christians from their natural habitat – much like removing a fish from a pond or a branch from a tree. To survive a Christian must be part of the Body of Christ. And regular weekly church attendance is the vehicle through which this is achieved.

To understand just how serious “neglecting to meet together” is, continue to read the following … Hebrews 10:26–31 (ESV) — 26 For if we go on sinning deliberately after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, 27 but a fearful expectation of judgment, and a fury of fire that will consume the adversaries. 28 Anyone who has set aside the law of Moses dies without mercy on the evidence of two or three witnesses. 29 How much worse punishment, do you think, will be deserved by the one who has trampled underfoot the Son of God, and has profaned the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified, and has outraged the Spirit of grace? 30 For we know him who said, “Vengeance is mine; I will
repay.” And again, “The Lord will judge his people.” 31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
