Meetings means maturity

August 22, 2009

I read the following written by a church leader about a church member:

I have know NNN for almost two years as his pastor. In that time he hs entered into a new dimension of faith and commitment. When I first knew him he was caught up in the busyness of business and had little time for the various meetings in the church.

Is that the primary measure of someone’s spiritual maturity – time for church meetings? It was certainly the only one the leader chose to bring up.  

Why no mention of whether he was running his business with integrity; loving his wife; bringing up his chidren in the discipline and instruction of the Lord; doing good to all people (especially those who are of the household of faith); stirring up other believers to love and good works; and talking to people about Jesus?

The leader mentioned none of these. He is a teacher in Israel and he doesn’t know this?
