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.
These verses demonstrate the importance of meeting together at church. During that time, we are called to encourage each other, to love others, and to do good works.
