HABITS WORTH HAVING – Fellowship (Acts 2:41-47; Heb 10:19-25) ----------------------------------------------- God created a family. He gives us spiritual gifts so that we can build up the body of Christ (Eph 4:11-16), and he gives us the ability to exercise those gifts. Share life on the journey to maturity. As part of His family, we should genuinely care about each other. Rather than say “I don’t need church,” we should want to be together. Jesus calls us His body. We need people and need to be part of the fellowship. It gives us checks, and we can encourage each other and cheer each other along. Application points: -- Make certain you enter the fellowship through faith in Jesus. -- Share life with people who point you to Jesus. Reach out to others, but beware the influence of bad people. -- Invest in the relationships of fellowship so that we all grow. We all have gifts, abilities, and resources to bring. But we need to invest it. Don’t sell ourselves short of what God has put in us. We need to bring our gifts to bear for the body.
