No I do not think that private home worship is the same as public church worship. Private worship does not have a preacher or minister to lead the service and presumably only involves ones closest friends and family. Now this is not to say that a church cannot meet in a home. But that is different because it allows a larger number of people to attend and usually it is seeking enough members and financial support to get a better more public site. In communist and other types of restrictive governments (Islamic Countries come to mind) the churches meet in homes and in great secrecy because of the persecution. However if the situation was to change then so would the way that those churches operated. This is not to say that home worship is bad, but it is different.

It's not quite the same, but you can still get "fed" doing a private study at home.
The point of public church worship is the fellowship you gain with other believers. You gain encouragement from speaking to other Christians and you gain the opportunity to be a blessing to those who go to church.
However, if you are unable to attend or find a suitable church, then I believe private home worship is a perfectly acceptable alternative. You have to get into the Word somehow!

If u R asking whther it is the same - NO!!
All you do, Do it all for the Glory of God.
Private home worship u get the privacy u require, get closer to each other, spend time for each or small groups. can have better communication between others. You may not get all this in Public Churches.
But the Spiritual atmosphere varies. In Public churches when more no. of anointed children get together the kinda Anointing u have ovr there is diffrnt frm wht is there in home worships. You can help grow the church, contribute to more, join in the church ministry. Instead of getting confined to small groups u can mix up with lot others, get to know others more etc.
Moreover Worship Him in Spirit and in Truth. God bless you

yes I do. The Bible states that many will be having small home worship as time goes on because many Christians whom refuse to bow down will not have churches to go to... Plus, all over the world, where the religious freedom is NOT to be found, they already do so because they could be executed for their faith.
Where any 2 or more gather and agree in Jesus's name, you will find Jesus, God and the Holy Spirit.
Peace be with you :)
***The church organization may not get money, lol, but this way money goes to what and where it is needed :)

I think that private worship in one's home is many times an excuse for poor social skills, fear of ones own worldly demeanor and language. People who do not want to be held accountable in life will many times say - it means the same to God. People who do not want to change or be confronted with truth will many times not go to church. But, no - being connected with a larger group of people is amazing - being able to serve and help others in your community and be helped in time of need is amazing. Making friends with people of similiar belief, having your children trained properly - opportunities to reach out and share your faith - it's incredible if you go to the right place for the right reasons. Not everyone has a church like mine!

I'm not sure I fully understand the question as it isn't very clear. If you want to do high school cheerleading, that means it's through a high school and you need to attend that school, usually. There may be other cheerleading squads available where you live--contact some gymnastics places.

If you get to know your bible really well, you may not find a church near you worth attending.
Jesus told Peter to FEED his sheep, not LEAD his sheep.
