Attendance
By
Frank Camp
If you
had but one week to live and were able to go to the services of the
church, how many would you attend? Would you sleep late and miss
Bible study? Would you miss the worship services if company came?
Would you come on Sunday morning and fail to attend Sunday night?
Would you attend the Bible study on Wednesday night or would you stay
and watch television? Would you go fishing Wednesday afternoon and
not get back in time for class? If you knew you had one week to live
with one more opportunity to attend all the services of the church,
would you not make a special effort to do so? Really and truly, do
you think you would be ready to die having attended only one service
the last week you lived? Should we not decide now that we ought to
live every week this way or we will not be ready to die?

“And
let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works:
Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of
some is: but exhorting one another; and so much the more, as ye see
the day approaching” (Hebrews 10: 24 & 25).
“Our
own assembling together” is a commandment to the church, to the
Lord’s day worship of the church. This regular Sunday service of
worship was set in motion by the apostles, honored by disciples of
all ages, and fully recognized as a sacred obligation for all
Christians. This obligation was so important that nothing was
allowed to hinder early Christians from attending. In some cases
they were severely punished for attending.
We today
should be of the same mind and determination in attending worship
services. I doubt we will be punished by mankind for attending.
