If you grow in God you will be growing in your love toward other Christians
Establish to others your love for Jesus – old and young
1 John 4:10-21
God loves us = We love others
Distance from other Christians = Distance from God
God’s love will not grow if you do not share it.
Each week make a plan to put God’s will into action.
Be able to talk to other Believers about how God is working in your life.
1 John 5:1
If you don’t like other Christians, there’s a reason for that.
It’s like two opposite magnets…there’s a force pushing them apart.
Romans 10:9-14
Colossians 3:1-17
Dealing with problems in fellowship
Working through turbulence is part of the walk sometimes.
You can put on Godliness…bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness, meekness, etc.
Remember it’s not about you – your likes and dislikes – but about what God desires.
Our preferences and feeling do not trump God’s will for us.
