The advance of technology allows us to communicate at a distance. Yet it disconnects us from people near to us. Look around you today and you will see people looking into a screen everywhere they go. Families in a fast food restaurant, people in public transport, and even in workplaces. Technology changed our entire culture. Throughout the Bible, the assembly of God's people is something very consistent and important. In the book of Hebrew chapter 10, the emphasis was given to urge believers to gather and not to give up meeting together physically, not via email, Facebook, twitters, or SMS. There was a time that God himself came in a body to be with people. There is power in physical presence and this power cannot be replaced with technology. Technology also speeds up things. We have minutes up in our emails right after a meeting. Thanks to portable tablets with high-speed Internet connections which promises us that we can get more done in a given time. However, not everything can speed up. We cannot speed up love, we cannot speed up care, we cannot speed up a friendship and the list goes on. (Excerpt from Shane Hipps) When God assemble His people and say that He will be present there, it should change our whole attitude about the assembly. Did not He promised that He is there when two or three are gathered? If God promised His presence, why His people not gathering? Give thought to that. No matter how technology is going to be in the future, decide that God's instruction to gather will not change and physical gathering will always be different and more fruitful as promised.
