~ The Purpose of Divine Fellowship ~

 

Introduction  ~  The Christian who is “walking worthy of his calling” (1 Thessalonians 1:11-12) is in fellowship with all three members of the Godhead and with other believers.

 

Fellowship With The Father (for will and purpose)  ~  “This is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to you, that God is light and in Him is no darkness at all.  If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth.  But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin” (1 John 1:5-7).

 

Fellowship With The Son (for walk and practice)  ~  “I thank my God always concerning you for the grace of God which was given to you by Christ Jesus, that you were enriched in everything by Him in all utterance and all knowledge, even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you, so that you come short in no gift, eagerly waiting for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ, who will also confirm you to the end, that you may be blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.  God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord” (1 Corinthians 1:4-9).

 

Fellowship With The Spirit (for witness and power)  ~  “Finally, brethren, farewell.  Become complete.  Be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace will be with you.  Greet one another with a holy kiss.  All the saints greet you.  The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.  Amen” (2 Corinthians 13:11-14).

 

Fellowship With The Saints (for word and perseverance) ~  Clearly, the obedient Christian is in fellowship with all three members of the Trinity as well as in fellowship with other Christians.  “And with many other words he testified and exhorted them, saying, ‘Be saved from this perverse generation.’  Then those who gladly received his word were baptized; and that day about three thousand souls were added to them.  And they continued steadfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship [with their brothers and sisters in Christ], in the breaking of bread, and in prayers” (Acts 2:40-42).
