Local Assemblies Are NOT Social Clubs! - Herbert W Armstrong - October 1957

Herbert W Armstrong

Believe it or not, assembling together in local groups or churches may lead to loss of salvation to many - unless these pitfalls are avoided! HERE is what our newly converted brethren need to know. TRUE, we are commanded not to forsake assembling ourselves together - and so much the more in these last days, as we approach the Day of the Eternal and the second coming of Christ. But there are pitfalls. Those inexperienced and unlearned in all the instruction of God to His ministers would never see them. They would trap the unwary and the innocent. But pitfalls are there. And they are a very real and potential danger! You have heard me say often that most of the worldly churches have degenerated into SOCIAL CLUBS. Most of us probably would never believe that could happen to any of us! We just don't think of ourselves in that language. Yet some of those oldest in our fellowship have actually fallen into that snare without realizing it! - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
