FELLOWSHIP (Acts 2:42 NKJV) And they continued steadfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers. (1 Cor 1:9 NKJV) God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord. (1 Cor 1:10 NKJV) Now I plead with you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment. (1 Cor 1:11 NKJV) For it has been declared to me concerning you, my brethren, by those of Chloe's household, that there are contentions among you. (1 Cor 1:12 NKJV) Now I say this, that each of you says, "I am of Paul," or "I am of Apollos," or "I am of Cephas," or "I am of Christ." (1 Cor 1:13 NKJV) Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul? (Col 3:14 NKJV) But above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfection. (Col 3:15 NKJV) And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful. (Col 3:16 NKJV) Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. (Col 3:17 NKJV) And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him. (Rom 14:23 NKJV) But he who doubts is condemned if he eats, because he does not eat from faith; for whatever is not from faith is sin. (Rom 15:1 NKJV) We then who are strong ought to bear with the scruples of the weak, and not to please ourselves. (Rom 15:2 NKJV) Let each of us please his neighbor for his good, leading to edification. (Rom 15:3 NKJV) For even Christ did not please Himself; but as it is written, "The reproaches of those who reproached You fell on Me." (Rom 15:4 NKJV) For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that we through the patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope. (Rom 15:5 NKJV) Now may the God of patience and comfort grant you to be like-minded toward one another, according to Christ Jesus, (Rom 15:6 NKJV) that you may with one mind and one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. (Rom 15:7 NKJV) Therefore receive one another, just as Christ also received us, to the glory of God. (2 John 1:7 NKJV) For many deceivers have gone out into the world who do not confess Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist. (2 John 1:8 NKJV) Look to yourselves, that we do not lose those things we worked for, but that we may receive a full reward. (2 John 1:9 NKJV) Whoever transgresses and does not abide in the doctrine of Christ does not have God. He who abides in the doctrine of Christ has both the Father and the Son. (2 John 1:10 NKJV) If anyone comes to you and does not bring THIS doctrine, do not receive him into your house nor greet him; (2 John 1:11 NKJV) for he who greets him shares in his evil deeds. The Good Confession is critical! Detour here. (Acts 15:37 NKJV) Now Barnabas was determined to take with them John called Mark. (Acts 15:38 NKJV) But Paul insisted that they should not take with them the one who had departed from them in Pamphylia, and had not gone with them to the work. (Acts 15:39 NKJV) Then the contention became so sharp that they parted from one another. And so Barnabas took Mark and sailed to Cyprus; (Acts 15:40 NKJV) but Paul chose Silas and departed, being commended by the brethren to the grace of God. (Acts 15:41 NKJV) And he went through Syria and Cilicia, strengthening the churches. 2 Tim 4:1 In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and in view of his appearing and his kingdom, I solemnly urge you: 2 Tim 4:2 proclaim the message; be persistent whether the time is favorable or unfavorable; convince, rebuke, and encourage, with the utmost patience in teaching. 2 Tim 4:3 For the time is coming when people will not put up with sound doctrine, but having itching ears, they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own desires, 2 Tim 4:4 and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander away to myths. 2 Tim 4:5 As for you, always be sober, endure suffering, do the work of an evangelist, carry out your ministry fully. 2 Tim 4:6 As for me, I am already being poured out as a libation, and the time of my departure has come. 2 Tim 4:7 I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. 2 Tim 4:8 From now on there is reserved for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, will give me on that day, and not only to me but also to all who have longed for his appearing. 2 Tim 4:9 Do your best to come to me soon, 2 Tim 4:10 for Demas, in love with this present world, has deserted me and gone to Thessalonica; Crescens has gone to Galatia, Titus to Dalmatia. 2 Tim 4:11 Only Luke is with me. Get Mark and bring him with you, for he is useful in my ministry. 2 Tim 4:12 I have sent Tychicus to Ephesus. 2 Tim 4:13 When you come, bring the cloak that I left with Carpus at Troas, also the books, and above all the parchments. 2 Tim 4:14 Alexander the coppersmith did me great harm; the Lord will pay him back for his deeds. 2 Tim 4:15 You also must beware of him, for he strongly opposed our message. 2 Tim 4:16 At my first defense no one came to my support, but all deserted me. May it not be counted against them! 2 Tim 4:17 But the Lord stood by me and gave me strength, so that through me the message might be fully proclaimed and all the Gentiles might hear it. So I was rescued from the lion's mouth. 2 Tim 4:18 The Lord will rescue me from every evil attack and save me for his heavenly kingdom. To him be the glory forever and ever. Amen. 2 Tim 4:19 Greet Prisca and Aquila, and the household of Onesiphorus. 2 Tim 4:20 Erastus remained in Corinth; Trophimus I left ill in Miletus. 2 Tim 4:21 Do your best to come before winter. Eubulus sends greetings to you, as do Pudens and Linus and Claudia and all the brothers and sisters. 2 Tim 4:22 The Lord be with your spirit. Grace be with you. Good Confession: (Acts 8:36 NKJV) Now as they went down the road, they came to some water. And the eunuch said, "See, here is water. What hinders me from being baptized?" (Acts 8:37 NKJV) Then Philip said, "If you believe with all your heart, you may." And he answered and said, "I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God." (Gal 3:28 NKJV) There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. (Phil 2:1 NKJV) Therefore if there is any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection and mercy, (Phil 2:2 NKJV) fulfill my joy by being like-minded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind. (Phil 2:3 NKJV) Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself. (Phil 2:4 NKJV) Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others. (Phil 2:5 NKJV) Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, (Phil 2:6 NKJV) who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, (Phil 2:7 NKJV) but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. (Phil 2:5 NKJV) Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, (Phil 2:6 NKJV) who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, (Phil 2:7 NKJV) but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. (Phil 2:8 NKJV) And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. (Phil 2:9 NKJV) Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, (Phil 2:10 NKJV) that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, (Phil 2:11 NKJV) and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. (1 John 1:1 NKJV) That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, concerning the Word of life; (1 John 1:2 NKJV) the life was manifested, and we have seen, and bear witness, and declare to you that eternal life which was with the Father and was manifested to us; (1 John 1:3 NKJV) that which we have seen and heard we declare to you, that you also may have fellowship with us; and truly our fellowship is with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ. (1 John 1:4 NKJV) And these things we write to you that your joy may be full. (1 John 1:5 NKJV) This is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to you, that God is light and in Him is no darkness at all. (1 John 1:6 NKJV) If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. (1 John 1:7 NKJV) But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin. (1 John 1:8 NKJV) If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. (1 John 1:9 NKJV) If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. (1 John 1:10 NKJV) If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us. (1 John 2:1 NKJV) My little children, these things I write to you, so that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous. (1 John 2:2 NKJV) And He Himself is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the whole world. (1 John 2:3 NKJV) Now by this we know that we know Him, if we keep His commandments. (1 John 4:1 NKJV) Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world. (1 John 4:2 NKJV) By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, (1 John 4:3 NKJV) and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world. (1 Cor 1:9 NKJV) God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord. (1 Cor 10:20 NKJV) Rather, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice they sacrifice to demons and not to God, and I do not want you to have fellowship with demons. (2 Cor 6:14 NKJV) Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness? (2 Cor 8:4 NKJV) imploring us with much urgency that we would receive the gift and the fellowship of the ministering to the saints. (Gal 2:9 NKJV) and when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that had been given to me, they gave me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, that we should go to the Gentiles and they to the circumcised. (Eph 3:9 NKJV) and to make all see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the ages has been hidden in God who created all things through Jesus Christ; (Eph 5:11 NKJV) And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them. (Phil 1:5 NKJV) for your fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now, (Phil 3:10 NKJV) that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death, (Acts 2:42 HG) . . proskartereo:G4342 proskartereo:G4342 . . apostolos:G652 didache:G1322 . koinonia:G2842 . . klasis:G2800 . artos:G740 . . proseuche:G4335 4342. proskartereo, pros-kar-ter-eh'-o; from G4314 and G2594; to be earnest towards, i.e. (to a thing) to persevere, be constantly diligent, or (in a place) to attend assiduously all the exercises, or (to a person) to adhere closely to (as a servitor):--attend (give self) continually (upon), continue (in, instant in, with), wait on (continually). 4342. proskartereo, pros-kar-ter-eh'-o; from G4314 and G2594; to be earnest towards, i.e. (to a thing) to persevere, be constantly diligent, or (in a place) to attend assiduously all the exercises, or (to a person) to adhere closely to (as a servitor):--attend (give self) continually (upon), continue (in, instant in, with), wait on (continually). 652. apostolos, ap-os'-tol-os; from G649; a delegate; spec. an ambassador of the Gospel; officially a commissioner of Christ ["apostle"] (with miraculous powers):--apostle, messenger, he that is sent. 1322. didache, did-akh-ay'; from G1321; instruction (the act or the matter):--doctrine, hath been taught. 2842. koinonia, koy-nohn-ee'-ah; from G2844; partnership, i.e. (lit.) participation, or (social) intercourse, or (pecuniary) benefaction:--(to) communicate (-ation), communion, (contri-), distribution, fellowship. 2800. klasis, klas'-is; from G2806; fracture (the act):--breaking. 740. artos, ar'-tos; from G142; bread (as raised) or a loaf:--(shew-) bread, loaf. 4335. proseuche, pros-yoo-khay'; from G4336; prayer (worship); by impl. an oratory (chapel):--X pray earnestly, prayer.
