" FELLOWSHIP "

Welcome Aboard, This is the day that our Lord has made and therefore I will not complain rain nor shine.I am a blessed man as I fellowship with a very special group of men. Men who know and understand the Word Of God and I am grateful for their Christian-Like Warrior Faith. Their prowess is unmatched in my book. John wrote about us having fellowship with other believers. There are three principles behind True Christian Fellowship. First our fellowship is grounded in the testimony of God's Word. Without this underlying strength, togetherness is impossible. second, it is mutual, depending on the unity of believers. Third, it is renewed daily through the Holy Spirit. True fellowship combines social and spiritual interaction, and it is made possible only through a living relationship with Christ. To neglect Christian meetings is to give up the encouragement and help of other Christians. We gather together to share our faith and to strengthen one another in the Lord. As we get closer to the "DAY" when Christ will return, we will face many spiritual struggles,and even times of persecution. Anti-Christian forces will grow in strength. Difficulties should never be excuses for missing church services. Rather, as difficulties arise, we should make an even greater effort to be faithful in our attendance. Now hows your relationship with your Heavenly Father? I was just sharing with someone this past weekend about our God and how he is always by our side. The thought of two humans covered with vegetation attempting to hide from the all-seeing, all-knowing God is humorous to me(Adam & Eve). How could they be so silly as to think they could actually hide from the Lord? Yet we do the same, acting as though God doesn't know what we're doing. Have the courage to share all you do and think with him. And don't try to hide, it can't be done. Honesty strengthens your relationship with God. God desires fellowship with us and Jesus opens the way, so why are we afraid of having companionship with Him? LAST POINT: Have you ever longed to see a friend with whom you share fond memories? All Christians are part of God's family and thus share equally in the Transforming Power of his Love. Do you feel a deep love for Fellow Christians, friends and strangers alike? Let Christ's love motivate you to love other Christians and to express that love in your actions toward them. " IF ONE FALLS DOWN, HIS FRIEND CAN HELP HIM UP. BUT PITY THE MAN WHO FALLS AND HAS NO ONE TO HELP HIM UP! " (Ecclesiastes 4:10) Until Next Time... Jim,
