THE FELLOWSHIP OF ONE ANOTHER
FELLOWSHIPING WITH LIGHT.
1 John 1:7 says "But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin." Continuing from yesterday, when we discover and apprehend our place in Christ through the Word, we are brought into fellowship one with another.
The focus of today's message is the transformation that occurs by walking in His light. The word translated "fellowship" comes from the Greek word koinonia; and koinonia has several synonyms. We will consider these: partnership, participation, contribution. Fellowship is a partnership, a participation, and a contribution. Fellowship is said to have been achieved when it exhibits an embodiment of "Oneness". Meaning, when anyone looks closely at the motive, thinking, and resultant actions of those in this oneness, there is a common theme. While different persons might have completed the action, it always seems as though the same person completed it.
We read an account of the apostles in the Book of Acts. It says thus, Acts 4:13 "Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus." Key words, "they had been with Jesus"; and therefore there was a display of the virtue of Christ.
As much as every Believer aspires to walk in the "steps of Jesus", there are particular steps we must consistently take to achieve our goal - discovery and apprehension of the truth according to the Word. This course of life has no place for personal opinions or bias. There are no gray areas here. This life deals only with Absolutes.
