Part 3 of 3 "Fellowship That's Full" Series
Message: The disciples had fellowship ideally designed by God. In the new church, the disciples had a common doctrine, fellowship, breaking of bread and prayer. Doctrine come to us through the Word of God, shaping and keeping us accountable. The Spirit of agreement unites us together in a giving of ourselves to each other. Jesus was the example of laying down a life for another, broken as bread and shared. In communicating with God in prayer, we are in agreement with His will. In prayer is a cleansing through confession to be in genuine fellowship and righteousness before God. Acknowledging God's handiwork and voice says we believe His words which shape the way we treat one another. We are stabilized in obedience and His indwelling, enabling us to walk in the Light, responding in righteousness. Consistency is found following Jesus and letting His blood cleanse all sin, shaping our minds toward righteousness. These beliefs are founded on the inspired Word of God, the roles, purposes and deity of the Trinity, the resurrection of Christ and the salvation by grace through faith. In freedom there are matters of conviction, conscience and choice, wanting God to be in all of them. In Christian love, let there be no division, but God's love, so our fellowship is full.
Scripture: Acts 2:42 "And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers." KJV
