Our fellowship with God is revealed in how we fellowship with others.
"But if we walk in the light,
as He is in the light,
we have fellowship
with one other."
1 John 1:7a (NIV)
God truly lives in us if we truly love each other.
No one has ever seen God.
But if we love each other,
God lives in us,
and His love in brought
to full expression in us."
1 John 4:12 (NLT)
The sincerity of our spirituality reveals itself in how we treat others. Are we friendly, sensitive to the feelings of others, supportive, thoughtful, kind-hearted, humble, and helpful? Or are we jealous, rude, controlling, self-righteous, demeaning, ungracious, and hurtful?
The way we respond to others determines our true relationship with God, and the church reveals its Christ-likeness in their friendliness to others.
