okay uh so why join a church like officially join a church mhm it's one thing to attend and and visit and and be faithful but why join a church well I think the the first answer to that question not the only answer but the first answer to that question is because God commands it um and so that's a that's an excellent reason and as Christians we are to uh joyfully receive the commands of God and and Obey with a with a Joy filled compliance because it's our Delight to please the one who has created us who upholds us and who has redeemed us um you know through the precious work of his only begotten son and you know one of the passages I think that that should always come up in a discussion like this is in Hebrews chapter 10 um where we see the Apostle Paul writing explicitly that we are not to forsake the assembling of ourselves together
