Re: Do unbelievers belong in the assembly?
In a house church setting, should unbelievers be admitted only to specific meetings designed for such purposes? Or should they be admitted to any and every meeting of the church?
I read a blog today where this very question was being discussed. One person made the comment: "I work with sinners, shop with sinners, go to baseball games with sinners, drive the streets with sinners, etc. I want to worship Christ with those sanctified by Him."
I mean, what is the purpose of assembling together? Is it to 'win the lost'? Or is it to strengthen and edify the believers, so they may go out and 'win the lost'?
If the latter, then it seems that 'church is for the believer and the lost need evangelism, not church meetings'.
