7 One Anothers

 ~ Are You Truly In Fellowship With One Another ~

There are many “one anothers” in Scripture.  Here are seven which produce and maintain true fellowship with one another. 

Receive One Another  ~  “Therefore receive one another, just as Christ also received us, to the glory of God” (Romans 15:7).   

Esteem One Another  ~  “Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself.  Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others” (Philippians 2:3-4).  

Consider One Another  ~  “And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching” (Hebrews 10:24-25).  

Edify One Another  ~  “Therefore let us pursue the things which make for peace and the things by which one may edify another” (Romans 14:19).  

Exhort One Another  ~  “Beware, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in departing from the living God; but exhort one another daily, while it is called ‘Today,’ lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin” (Hebrews 3:12-13).  

Admonish One Another  ~  “Now I myself am confident concerning you, my brethren, that you also are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish one another” (Romans 15:14).  

Submit To One Another  ~  “Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is.  And do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation; but be filled with the Spirit, speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord, giving thanks always for all things to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, submitting to one another in the fear of God” (Ephesians 5:17-21).
