What does it mean that we are gathered together in Christ?

The concept of being gathered together in Christ encapsulates our unity as a church, metaphorically described as His body in 1 Corinthians 12:12-27. As believers, we are not merely individuals saved in isolation; rather, we are brought into a spiritual family where each member plays a distinct role. Ephesians 1:10 emphasizes that God’s purpose is to unite all things in Christ. Therefore, gathering in His name signifies our collective identity, shared faith, and call to support and encourage one another in our spiritual journeys.
