A healthy church is made up of people who are in close communion with God and each other.
- I John 1 – Jesus is our basis for this communion.
- Communion with God enables us to walk in the light and have fellowship with each other.
- In our communion with God we receive incredible resources not available to those who are in darkness; but we still need fellowship with each other (church).
- I Corinthians 10 – the Corinthians’ lack of self-restraint was putting their communion with God at risk.
- II Corinthians 6 – God wants to fellowship with us, but requires us to leave darkness behind. Paul urges the Corinthians to “cleanse” themselves and “bring holiness to completion” (7:1)
- Our communion with God is not something we can afford to neglect or be careless about. We do not need to get everything right, but we must watch out for harmful patterns that can shift our affections.
- The song “Open the Wells” is the prayer of someone who is “thirsting for more and deeper communion.” How does someone like this live his life? Such a person would guard against things that can damage this communion, involve himself in things that can feed this thirst, and live out his love for God through faithful obedience.
