Apostasy! - Do Not Forsake The Assembling of Yourselves Together

What is apostasy-- It is a making shipwreck of the faith -1 Tim. 1-19-. It is the heart's departure from the living God -Heb. 3-12-. It is a returning to and being overcome by the world, after a previous escape from its pollutions through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ -2 Pet. 2-20-. There are various steps which precede it. First, there is a looking back -Luke 9-62-, like Lot's wife, who though she had outwardly left Sodom, yet her heart was still there.
