Unity and Fellowship


7-12-2014      Acts 20:1-3

S.       1 And after the uproar was ceased, Paul called unto him the disciples, and embraced them, and departed for to go into Macedonia.2 And when he had gone over those parts, and had given them much exhortation, he came into Greece, 3 And there abode three months. And when the Jews laid wait for him, as he was about to sail into Syria, he purposed to return through Macedonia.

O.      Paul leaves Ephesus after the uproar and travels back to the churches of Macedonia. Paul gives comfort and instruction unto these churches.

A.      The benefit of fellowship and mutual aid (both physical and spiritual) should not be overlooked. From the very beginning; Christians have banded together, learned from each other, shared their substance and remained part of each other’s lives. This type of relationship is needed now more than ever. Satan easily overcomes the person who is isolated.


P.       Father; bring me into perfect fellowship with you and lead me, teach me and bring me into fellowship with other Christians. Help me to open my heart to others and embrace their fellowship. Amen.
