In the Old Testament the people of Israel were taught to go to their appropriate place in the Tabernacle, or later one of the two Temples, to meet God there. During the wandering in the wilderness, the presence of God was shown by a pillar of cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night. God's presence was external in those days. Today God dwells within each believer through the Holy Spirit (Hebrews 3:6, I Corinthians 3:16, 6:19). Why, then, are we still called to not "forsake the assembling of ourselves together, as is the habit of some?" Church should be a place where Christians come together in one accord to be taught the word of God, to worship God, and to fellowship together. For the non-Christian, a church should be the place where they can find out about Christ, be instructed in why and how to allow Him in, and take the first steps towards life in Him. Church isn't only about coming to worship and learn about God. Another part is fellowship with other Christians. This encourages and reminds that there are other people that have the same problems we do. It stregthens our friendships with other Christians and gives us chances to outreach to non-Christians. Acts 7:48 Howbeit the most High dwelleth not in temples made with hands; as saith the prophet,
