“As the darkness deepens all around—and what abundant evidences there are everywhere today that the Lord’s coming is near—believers especially need each other’s fellowship. We are to cling together and resist every pressure that would draw us away from the assembly of God’s people. Business pressures, family pressures, social pressures, economic pressures, entertainment pressures, and physical pressures all militate against our being present at the gatherings of God’s people. Let us face our great responsibility. Having been invited to come into God’s immediate presence, we must resist anything that would draw us away.” (Hebrews 10:22–25)
