We welcome you now to a true church perspective with Pastor G. Craig Lewis.

Like-minded fellowship. Look at somebody saying like-minded fellowship.

Hey, man. The Bible tells us, and they kept their attention fixed on the Apostles' teachings

and were united together in the taking of broken bread and in prayer.

Who is this? This is the early church. This is the first assembly of a church post-Jesus Christ

era after the Holy Ghost had come, after the ability for Christ to live in us in the person

of the Holy Ghost had manifested itself this is the direction that the first church first

went in the Bible said their attention was fixed on the Apostle's teaching and they were what

united together. They were united together in breaking of bread and in prayer. So this is basically

saying they were united together when they were in here and they were united together when they

weren't in here. That's what this is telling us right here.

This is God's plan because he wanted them to grow together.

He wanted them to know each other.

And he wanted them to be strengthened as a body.

So that when people saw the body, they would want to join the body.

Amen. Amen. Now the internet has come along and caused just has wreaked havoc on this ideology from so many different vantage points. First, first one, people are,

you know, they can operate in total solitude on the internet they don't have to have physical contact with

anyone they can live a life that they want to live by posting what they want

to post and creating an outward appearance that may or may not be true but they

can gather so-called virtual friends and lock in on them

and then not really know those that are laboring among them.

They can be, you can be whoever you want to be on the internet.
