This week, we deviated a bit from the line of sharing about the corner stone being our Lord Jesus Christ, but I think it is ok. Rather we talked about the way and the content of true fellowship are.
Firstly, it is under the order of the "New Covenant", which is existing in Heaven and introduced to us by the teachings and gifts of the Holy Spirit, being embodied and ministered amongst His people.
Secondly, we explained a bit the importance of the restoration of the kind of discipleship as Jesus passed unto the church. It is referred to as the culture or order of the Father's household, as His teaching is no other than His Life or His Love and Wisdom received and shared amongst His disciples.
Thirdly, we pointed out that this kind of teachings is the apostolic teachings Paul passed unto Timothy to teach in every church as a foundation for a local fellowship to be built upon.
So the way of this fellowship is by the Holy Spirit, we are being introduced to a process of cleansing or sanctification in a family of love by the living Word of God, a fellowship on earth with other members of God's household as it is in heaven with all the heavenly assembly in the presence of the Father and Son, partaking the Life of God, even as the lamb of God offering to us His Body and His blood as the blessings of His covenant with us.
The law of righteousness is now fulfilled in this fellowship, as the Spirit of God is writing His Covenant in our hearts, we are living now as a new creation according the Law of the Life of God, patterned after the Son, the Face of God's glory and the embodiment of God's nature.
Be Holy, as God is Holy. It is more than a process of a person's life devoted unto God. It is also the necessary protocol, requiring a heart of reverence and understanding (put on the clean garment) for each member of His Household to approach and behave around His Table or before His Throne.
