@pretradition yes I agree with you in the specific word used by the authors of both Hebrews and I Thess 2:1--the context of greek word in hebrews 10 "assembling" is no doubt the same in I thess 2:1 they are both in the form of noun. What I am saying in my comment is not the specific context of the word/s that's found in the particular verse, I am referring to the whole context of both chapters--Hebrews 10 and I Thess 2. I fully understand your point in this article and it is true that there are many of those religious groups and if there are some christian churches (I don't want to judge them) that are intentionally corrupting the true meaning of the church because of their personal greed. But to us, who wants to keep the sound teaching of the infallible word of God--it's our rightful duty to become active, cooperative and participative in as much as our time permits, to involve ourselves in the gathering of the believers for edification and worship so that the body of Christ may continue to grow in strength, in faith, in hope and in love until the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. And this gathering or assembling should know no limits in the four corners of the building or under the name of a specific local church. it should be anywhere even in our houses as the early believers is doing in the book acts. I thanks God for your passion and love for His word. Bless you more :)
