“Hearing that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees, the Pharisees got together.” (Matthew 22 v 34)
Gatherings can be powerful but not have the Presence.
They gathered together in unity.
They gathered to rejoice their enemy had been silenced.
They gathered for vision, for purpose and ‘for an assault’ (Msg)
Not all religious gatherings have Jesus at the centre.
