God's Word tells us the persons-not to fellowship with- and to fellowship with. To God fellowship means: to share a common life with those who have seen and heard the Word of Life, Jesus Christ, unto us eternal life with the Father. Those who believe this as we declare it unto them, an share this joy with us... We must walk in the light (with God and others) and not be in the darkness at all... Love and Light walk... and we are being cleansed from our sins by the precious blood of Jesus Christ God's Son... I John 1:1-10
Confessi9on of sins and forgiveness is the very central theme of this Teaching.
So, we can never have fellowship with unbelievers ever... nor can we have the sweet fellowship God talks about with believers who are not walking in the light, sinning against the truth and living a lie....
Since we are sinners by nature and by choice, we must constantly allow the Spirit of the Lord to convict us, we must confess our sins, receive the cleansing of the precious blood and the comfort of the Holy Ghost...
Psalm 94:20 'stay away from mischievous trouble makers' Psalm 1:1 'do not take advice or counsel from the ungodly!' Psalm 26:4 'Do not sit among worthless people or mix with hypocrites' (New English Bible?) ... 'I do not have fellowship with tricky two-faced men; they are false and hypocritical'... (Living Bible) Also, we are told to stay away from all ungodliness, rebels, mockers, angry short tempered men, bribers, evil men, drunkards, prostitutes, radicals, nor invite them to our homes, nor deceivers. 'The wicked enjoy fellowship with others who are wicked; liars enjoy liars' Proverbs 17:4... Proverbs 22:10, 24,25, 23:1,6,8,22, Proverbs 27:19 'A mirror reflects a man's face, but what he is really like is shown by the kind of friends he chooses.' Proverbs 22:24,25 'Keep away from angry, short-tempered men, lest you learn to be like them and endanger your soul.'
Ephesians 5:11, 12 'Have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness (barren), but rather expose them.' IICorinthians 6:14,15, 'Be not unequally yoked together with unbelievers'... I John 2:15-17... the spirit of the world desires to 'impress, control, acquire'... II Corinthians 6:14,15 'what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness! no unequal yoke...'.. II Corinthians 10:18-22, Galatians 5:19-21, I Corinthians 5:9-13, Joshua 8
Good, tested, trusted fellowship according to God's word...
