Yeah physical gathering, and who stopped u from assembling ur family members or neighbors (up to 3-4) to worship God. or wont God be in ur midst?. People are here worshipping in homes in small groups and u are here complaining. or havent u read that most fellowships in the days of Paul were held in people's homes?

That’s their local assembly by choice
paul also had use a lecture theatre For fellowship.

Acts 19:9 (NLT)
. So Paul left the synagogue and took the believers with him. Then he held daily discussions at the lecture hall of Tyrannus.

Please do not ignore the most important part of the detail there... paul held daily DISCUSSIONS with those who met with him at the hall in question. There was certainly some debating of ideas and beliefs, exchanges between minds. How much DISCUSSING goes on in church buildings around the world?

In other words, how many churches are u very sure of that have a qualified pastor?

17 Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you.

No wonder ... you need to have a Pastor over you . Get one to submit to. Everyone needs who to submit to.

See there, proof of who your churches belong to. Not God but the government. undecided
Note that they are not asking God to reopen but asking the government instead for permission to reopen. undecided

I will never under score the importance of gathering. Nothing can replace d gathering of d saints

but it's gross ignorance making d lockdown all about d government fighting d church. ur president is a staunch Muslim, and Muslims take going to mosque far more serious dan Christians take going to church. so for him to allow the lockdown of d mosques it must be serious
USA dat announced dat churches should reopen, how are they faring now? are they not contemplating another total lockdown?
wisdom is the principal thing
u can gather on zoom abi Skype na...
