Evidences: True Fellowship

Romans 12:9-13 is often quoted to talk about love. However, the lessons in this passage can be applied to the fellowship. True Christian fellowship is deeper than just getting along with people.
  1. Source (Genuine Lordship and Genuine Love)
    Does your definition of fellowship stem from the God's lordship over you or is it a mere by product of you trying to achieve uniformity of thoughts and preferences with your peers? True fellowship first starts with the Lord, because the first duty of every soul is to find its master. Only when we find fellowship with Jesus can we have fellowship with others. When Jesus becomes lord over you life, it will reflect to others. Furthermore, how sincere is your love? The very nature of love demands that it be sincere.
  2. Means (Familiar Devotion and Humble Devotion) - Do not be quick to judge what God is doing in other people's lives. Be hesitant of judging others.
  3. Purpose - we are here to lift up God,

How far do you go to help others? When the means are readily available, do you take the opportunity to help others? When Christ is Lord over your life, others come first and you become last.
