Fellowship

  • We are in a fellowship.
  • Importance of having a fellowship
  • Bible littered with examples.

Psalm 133: 1

“It is good and pleasant when God’s people live together in peace!”

Ecclesiastes 4: 9-12

“Two people are better than one,
because they get more down by working together.
If one falls down,
The other can help him up.
But it is bad for the person who is alone and falls,
Because no one is there to help.
If two lie down together, they will be warm,
But a person alone will not be warm.
An enemy might defeat one person,
But two people together can defend themselves:
A rope that is woven of three strings is hard to break"

  • The devil is enemy.
  • Defend against with strength of numbers.
  • Use rope (Tug-of-war)

Romans 15: 5

“Patience and encouragement come from God. And I pray that God will help you all agree with each other the way Christ Jesus wants”

· Learn to encourage

Ephesians 4: 3

“You are joined together with peace through the Spirit, so make every effort to continue together this way.”

· Keep the peace.

1 Timothy 2: 8

“So, I want men everywhere to pray, lifting up their hands in a holy manner, without anger and arguments.”

· Settle differences and unite for God.

1 Peter 4: 8

“Most importantly, love each other deeply, because love will cause many sins to be forgiven.”

· Love each other as God loves us.

Show them a list of TV shows

Get people to go to people they like the least and tell them “God loves you very much, and I can also love you like a brother/sister”
