What does the Bible say about the purpose of church gatherings?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible teaches that the purpose of church gatherings is for the mutual edification of believers.

According to 1 Corinthians 14, the Apostle Paul emphasizes that church gatherings are for the benefit and edification of the body of Christ. People come together not merely to listen to a sermon, but to build each other up in the faith. The collective participation of believers—sharing psalms, teachings, and spiritual insights—is essential for their spiritual growth. This mutual interaction among the saints ensures that when they convene, they fulfill the biblical mandate to come together for encouragement and strengthening of one another in the most holy faith.
