Fellowship +

1 Corinthians 1:9
"God, who has called you into fellowship with his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord, is faithful."

What does FELLOWSHIP really means?

• Spiritual unity with Christ 
• Sharing or having things in common 
• A spiritual meeting and not a flesh-led gathering 

"Fellowship is a spiritual relationship among believers that express itself in being together and doing God's will together."

Genesis 1:27
"So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them."

Leviticus 19:15-18
15 Do not pervert justice; do not show partiality to the poor or favoritism to the great, but judge your neighbor fairly.
16 Do not go about spreading slander among your people. Do not do anything that endangers your neighbor’s life. I am the Lord.
17 Do not hate a fellow Israelite in your heart. Rebuke your neighbor frankly so you will not share in their guilt.
18 Do not seek revenge or bear a grudge against anyone among your people, but love your neighbors yourself. I am the Lord.

Matthew 22:36-39 The greatest commandment (Love God and Love others)
36 “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?”
37 Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’

38 This is the first and greatest commandment.

39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.

With whom can we have fellowship?
1 John 1:3
"We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ."

Forms of Fellowship:

Benefits and Blessing we receive from fellowship:

• We strengthen the weak and inspire the discouraged

• We discover and develop our gifts and potentials 

What can we do when you attend fellowship?

• Serve one another 

Galatians 5:13
"You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in love."

• Be hospitable to one another 

1 Peter 4:9
"Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling."

• Care for one another 

1 Corinthians 12:26
"If one part suffers, every part suffers with it; if one part is honored, every part rejoices with it."

• Pray for one another 

James 5:16
"Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective."

• Restore one another 

James 5:19-20
19 My brothers and sisters, if one of you should wander from the truth and someone should bring that person back, 20 remember this: Whoever turns a sinner from the error of their way will save them from death and cover over a multitude of sins.

• Teach and admonish one another 

Colossians 3:16
"Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom through psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts."

God: My Own Descriptions (:

I started this next article of mine with a very touching video clip. This was sent to me by my girlfriend, Danica R. Dacumos, and asked me to watch it. As I watch it, I found that guilt inside my heart. Maybe you felt the same way too. I felt a little bit of sadness because the reality was almost slapped to my face. The real thing is that we all know that He is ALWAYS there, He NEVER FAILS to love us, to carry us, to protect us, to guide us, and to give everything but we still can make Him really upset. Sometimes unconsciously and most of the time, insensitively! :( That's a sad truth..

I hope that you are also awakened by this video clip and for now I'll be posting something I learned from the MIRACLES of every moment God has given.

God? Who really is He? Maybe just like me before, most of you are still wondering.

Let me tell you about some of the things I've knew about Him from the moment I accepted Him in my life.

God is Perfect..

All I know is that only God is perfect. He created people just like His own image but no one can ever be as perfect as Him.  We are all imperfect people but in His sight we are created for a one of a kind will. For each one of us, He has unique and Perfect plans. That's HIM! He is worthy to be glorified and praised.

God is Righteous..

He knows what's best for us and never plans to hurt us. Sometimes He chooses to hurt us but He knows that it will make us a better person taking a path towards His greatest promises. Remember, He is righteous. He knows everything. He doesn't even want us to be hurt but He wants to be molded  perfectly and still decides to be righteous even though it also hurts Him to see us hurting. Trust Him, He has great and righteous plans for each one of us. :)

God is Love..

 It is He who made the real definition of LOVE. It is when He gave His only begotten Son to save all of us from sins even before we came out of this world. How could You give your own Son just to save the sinners? How can You still be so kind even You know from the start that we will commit sins all over again?

He loves that so much that He is willing to give everything,

EVERYTHING!

without even asking for something in return.

That's Unconditional love.

Me as a Christian..

Hi . :)

I'm Joshua Loewe P. Ladisla, 19 years old.

I'm from Nueva Ecija and I am a

Certified Christian (:

I'm that cat before when I was young. My parents used to tell me things about Him, always! I still don't understand them that time, "I'm too young for that!". All I know is that there is Someone up there as they always say. 

I am a Christian since I am 3 months old.

I lived in Cainta, Rizal for almost 7 years and

that's where I slowly grew up not only as a person but also as a

Courageous Child of God.

I know I'm one of them. I can imagine myself holding a piece of paper with a written dot on it and I was standing right after that last child, completing the sentence "I am a Child of God." Take note of the dot. :)

I used to go to church with my parents and my siblings.

Our parents taught us how to behave properly inside the church and of course,

they told us the only reason why we need to go there. It's because of God.

There they are. My mom, my kuya, my little sister and my dad. :) They are the ones by my side when I first learned a special thing. One of the greatest thing I've ever learn, PRAYING.

Here I am now,

a better person.

Taking the journey towards His will

and making the best out of every gracious moment.

Serving others and

serving GOD..

This is now who I am. A BELIEVER :) And I dare you to do the same!!

Thank You for reading my first article..

I'm looking forward to sharing more of my Godly stories with you.

You are also free to place your comments and

own stories here.

You and me will be one in

praising Him,

Glorifying His name and

faithfully proclaiming His words.

Stay connected (;

Salute to the Holy One!
