bible study | lesson 6 | fellowship: one to another

Real love and real fellowship go hand in hand.  One is dependent upon the other.  As God loved us in a practical way, so we must love one another.  1 John 3:18 tells us to love one another not only with words, but with action and truth.  Fellowship means sharing something with another person in a deep way.  This study will help you to see both the importance of fellowship to our spiritual lives as well as our responsibilities in Christian fellowship.
