The argument goes something like this: The Bible says that where two or three are gathered there is Jesus in the midst of them (Matt 18:20). That indicates that a gathering of two or three includes the very important presence of the Lord Jesus Christ. People wear their best clothes when they meet someone Important (like if one had a meeting with the President). This indicates that the esteem put on the person justifies the better clothing. Christ is more Important than anyone and to be greater esteemed. Therefore, when going to any meeting of the church a person should wear their best clothes.

A Plague On You
My infant boy is spitting up way more than normal, probably resulting from a milk protein allergy; my wife (who is breast-feeding) has cut out eggs and milk from her diet so she’s down to chicken and rice…daily; my eldest is complaining about a raw throat; my daughter is wheezing proving that she has inherited my asthma.
Of course, posting will resume: but not yet.
Dispelling Disappearance Rumors
Just wanted to dispel some rumors about my absence. I was NOT caught up into the third heaven (only to find out that I’ve got everything wrong). I was NOT caught up in a liberal and postmodern branch of the Plymouth Brethren (who believe in wearing black head coverings instead of white ::gasp::). Neither was I raptured leaving the rest of you behind.
I’m still here. Working on my kids, life, job, yard and posts. Posting will resume shortly.
