What a joy to discover that our fellowship with each other now has the same inspiration and motivation as our fellowship with God.
So, friends, we can now—without hesitation—walk right up to God, into "the Holy Place." Jesus has cleared the way by the blood of his sacrifice, acting as our priest before God. The "curtain" into God's presence is his body. So let's do it—full of belief, confident that we're presentable inside and out. Let's keep a firm grip on the promises that keep us going. He always keeps his word. Let's see how inventive we can be in encouraging love and helping out, not avoiding worshiping together as some do but spurring each other on, especially as we see the big Day approaching. Heb 10:19-25 MSG
There is no obligation, no hesitation, no sense of lack or inferiority in our fellowship with God, rather, it is a fellowship marked by confidence and the assurance that we are 'presentable' ... attractive to HIM. Can you see how this is now the same basis for our fellowship with each other: no obligation, no hesitation, just the confident expectation that all of God will be revealed in us.
