In Hebrews 10:24-25, Paul encouraged believers to continue fostering a Christian community, “not forsaking our own assembling together.”

There are many ways to keep this biblical custom today, which is why many Sabbath-keepers hold church services on the seventh day. Religious observance in this manner provides a perfect time to gather in worship, in study, and in fellowship—all in praise of our Creator. It’s also a wonderful way to keep one another accountable in the name of God’s commandment to remember the Sabbath Day. 

In addition to worship services, the Sabbath gives opportunity for other relational gatherings. Many churches organize a Sabbath meal following worship. Believers can also take advantage of this consecrated time for community service or dedicated family gatherings.
