3.The church is the temple of prayer.

In Luke 19:46,
“Saying unto them, It is written, My house is the house of prayer: but ye have made it a den of thieves.” Daily in the temple (Hebrews 3:13)
“But exhort one another daily, while it is called Today; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.”

4. Disciples preached the word in different places.

The places include: public markets, buses, ports, holding crusades daily in parks, plazas. Only 4th Watcher people are consistent in doing it.
In Acts 17:17, “Therefore disputed he in the synagogue with the Jews, and with the devout persons, and in the market daily with them that met with him.”

5. Ministers are not intended for salary. In John 10:12,

“But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep.”

6. Ministers do not have personal properties.

In Philippians 3:7-8,
“But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ. Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ,”

7. There is kneeling in worship.

In Psalms 95:6, “O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the LORD our maker.”
Philippians 2:10, “That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;”

8. Holy Communion is served every first day of the week.

One of the reasons for Sunday Assembly is the Holy Communion. In Acts 20:7, “And upon the first day of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul preached unto them, ready to depart on the morrow; and continued his speech until midnight.”
1 Corinthians 11:20, “When ye come together therefore into one place, this is not to eat the Lord’s supper.”

verse 23, “For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread:”

1 Corinthians 16:1-2 “Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I have given order to the churches of Galatia, even so do ye. Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as God hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come.” They gather every first day of the week to break bread.
