I want to share what I learned it the teaching by Bro Elisoriano
I learned that the purpose of the Gathering that God commanded us to always do is to observe one another and to be provoked unto good work, for the brethren to see each other and look after each other and see each other so that if anyone will be in need of help, we will be able to render ( Heb 10 vs 24-25). So we shouldn't not go to church because of money or because of you having a new clothes or focusing on money.
The focus should be the doctrine, if you're observing the brethren, you will be provoked to do good work and have sense of concern to the brethren, ( Mat 26 vs 11 ) we should watch and pray so we won't fall into temptation.
There are some people that they respect the rich people and disrespect the poor people assuming the rich and the poor comes to the church they will honour the rich and then ignore it is not supposed to be like that in the church we should love and respect everyone equally and we should never be judgmental neither should we be partial ( James 2 vs 1-3 ).
There are members that don't have anything, so when you have, when you observe well, you will be able to help them and also if you have any food and you know you can't give out you don't bring it to their presents so that they won't be craving for it learn to help and the solution to people ( 1 Cor 11 vs 22 ), when you have to much and can't help with it, then keep it to yourself
I also learned that perfect joy can be filled when breeding together when you observe and exalt one another (2 John 1 vs 12), The early Christian gathered and observe each other and help one another and the big part of the gardening is spent on studying the world of God ( Act 20 vs 7 )
I also learned that whenever we are coming to the presence of God we should have a psalm and all things should be done onto edifying God, there should be singing and joyful activities, when the world was created the angels sang, God himself sang so we should always come with psalms to the presence of God. We sing to almost everything, to our father, mother and even when selling anything, so to God we should always come with songs to his presence ( 1 Cor 14 vs 24 )
I also learned that the only person we have to sing to is God and not to man, He's the only one worthy of our praise we have to offer a sacrifice of praise to God that is the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name ( Heb 13 vs 15 )
I also learned that there is deliverance in praising God, there are songs of deliverance David sang during the time of soul when he was possessed by evil Spirit, David sang deliverance songs and the evil spirits in soul flee (1 Sam 16 vs 23 )
And lastly I learned that we should always gather every first day of the week and it's worse recorded in the Bible that first day of the week is Sundays, So we shouldn't be like the seventh day Adventist Church that's believe all serving good on Saturdays. We can also worship and praise God every day and any day because the bible says if my people will themselves and pray and sick my face and turn from their wickedness I will forgive them and heal their land (2 Chro 7 vs 14 ), God is capable of healing our land and even our self God will forgive us so we should always worship and praise God in every moment of our life
Thanks be to God

MCGI Cares (Hive) community's main mission is to share the words of God, not the Hive upvotes. If we get upvotes, please treat it as just a bonus. Do not focus mainly on material things as the bible is teaching us not to look at things seen but rather focus our eyes on things not seen.
II CORINTHIANS 4:18
While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.
