Fragment

As God’s assembly is made up of individuals, it is impossible to be right with God in a corporate sense unless we are so individually. An assembly gathered to the Lord’s name will always manifest the moral qualities of those who comprise it individually. Here again Scripture reminds us that “by much slothfulness the building decayeth; and through idleness of the hands the house droppeth through” (Eccl. 10:1818By much slothfulness the building decayeth; and through idleness of the hands the house droppeth through. (Ecclesiastes 10:18)).
