Edifying vs Worship

In 3 days the Real Church was build.

John 2:
19 Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.
20 Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?
21 But he spake of the temple of his body.
22 When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this unto them; and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had said.


Paul also mentioned this in Revelation because He never heard Jesus actually say it.

1 Cor. 3:
9 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God’s husbandry, ye are God’s building.
10 According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon.
11 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.
12 Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble;
13 Every man’s work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man’s work of what sort it is.
14 If any man’s work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward.
15 If any man’s work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.
16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
17 If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.
] And the Real Church is build by the Word of the Church which is Jesus. Where He was the Living Word in Being the Church Himself which manifested in the Living God speaking and acting from Him. But He was not the Real Church. He was the Word of the Real Church. And through the Word of the Real Church it was created by the Living Word in 3 days. Which was the death and resurrection of the Living God, Jehovah/Yahweh in Jesus. And in Revelation we are all being build as the Real Church and start Living in being One with God as our Father in Jesus.


As a Real Church we now enter Meetings with others who are also Real Churches. And these Meetings are the Meetings in the Name of Jesus in 2 and 3 Persons through our day.

Mat. 18:
19 Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.
20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.

And in Meetings in the Name of Jesus in houses.

1 Cor. 14: 26 How is it then, brethren? when ye come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying.
27 If any man speak in an unknown tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and that by course; and let one interpret.
28 But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to God.
29 Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other judge.
30 If any thing be revealed to another that sitteth by, let the first hold his peace.
31 For ye may all prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may be comforted.

We enter these two Scriptural Meetings to Live and Be the Church of the Living God. These Meetings are called Edifying Meetings where the Living God is Edifying us or creates us as His Temples. And He uses each one of us to do that. In giving each one of us Gifts by which we enter Edifying in His Presence in Meetings He hold. Where all learn to follow His guidance in these two Scriptural Meetings.


This of course brings now the Revelation on the “Synagogues of Satan” into perspective.

Rev.3:
9 Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee.

And now we see the “son of perdition too.

2 Thess. 2:
3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.
5 Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?
6 And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time.
might be saved.


All who deviated from Scripture with their own meetings which exists in laws of man are the Synagogues of Satan because of their existences as a lie and the person conducting those meetings in the place of the Living God the sons of perdition. These meetings are also as result not Edifying Meetings by the Living God but “worship meetings of mankind to its “god”. The one is Meeting of the Father raising His Children in His Life and the other is the slaves worshiping its “god” in the worship spirit which God created for that purpose. Which is not the Holy Spirit. Because the Holy Spirit can only Love God as Father and not worship God as slave.
 
I think k you are making church attendance overly complicated.
Jesus's habit, as was the apostles was to attend the synagogue, until they expelled or stopped listening.
So we too should regularly attend so we bring the Holy Spirit into that meeting and by our presence be an encouragement to others.

We are not Christians for what we get out of it, neither do we attend church only for our benefit.
