There are a lot of myths that have arisen concerning the assembly. These have neutralized the effectiveness of the assembly, focusing on human objectives rather than Divine ones. A review of these will be helpful. The purpose of this review is not to deprecate the subjects discussed, or to reduce their role in the perfecting of the saints.
Many assemblies focus on reaching the lost during their gatherings.
Their Lord's day meetings are evangelistic rallys. This is a noble desire, but has no support in Scripture. While this is a very cherished tradition, there are some things that it has overlooked. Conversion is the vestibule to that experience, not the heart of it. If people do not advance in the faith, they will draw back to perdition.
