When God gathers His Body, He feeds His body, gives it nutrition. He is strengthening, growing the koinonia of His BodySome of those feeding experiences seem to be the same through time:In Worship, God feeds us; we respond.Open my lips, Lord,and my mouth will declare your praise.You do not delight in sacrifice, or I would bring it;  you do not take pleasure in burnt offerings. -Psalm You must not worship the Lord your God in the way those who worship idols worship their gods. … Seek the place the Lord your God will choose from among all your tribes to put his Name there for his dwelling. To that place you must go; … There, in the presence of the Lord your God, you and your families shall eat and shall rejoice in everything you have put your hand to, because the Lord your God has blessed you. -Deuteronomy We love because he first loved us. -1 John The Word (Scripture), Communion, and Baptism are constant ways in which God Promises to always feed and strengthen koinoniaSome portions of those experiences are different over time1.      Traditions and cultures change2.      Location of the gathering place3.      Worship music4.      Method of Word study, frequency of Communion, method of baptizing.5.      What age groups attend?6.      Do people stand or sit? Why?7.      Robes, stoles, incenseSome of the ways the koinonia is built and fed adapt in time and place. But God also has some unchanging ways which He promises will build and feed koinonia.So what is God doing when He gathers his Body? Feeding and strengthening it!What are his Gathered people doing – being fed and strengthened for the work of the Body.Continue the conversation with us by sending an email to [email protected]  Join our Facebook Page- https://www.facebook.com/TheologyOnTapPodcast Please rate this podcast and comment on why you like the show.--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/theologyontap/message
