A comunhão
A comunhão cristã é dom e mandamento. Juntos somos mais fortes. A Bíblia celebra a unidade dos crentes em Cristo como antecipação do céu na terra.
I in them, and You in Me, that they may be perfected into one, and that the world may know that You sent Me, and loved them as You loved Me.
A new command I give to you, that you love one another; according as I loved you, that you also love one another; in this will all know that you are My disciples, if you may have love one to another."
and all those believing were at the same place, and had all things common, and they were selling the possessions and the goods, and were parting them to all, according as anyone had need. Also continuing daily with one accord in the temple, also breaking bread at every house, they were partaking of food in gladness and simplicity of heart, praising God, and having favor with all the people, and the LORD was adding those being saved every day to the Assembly.
we declare to you that which we have seen and heard, that you also may have fellowship with us, and our fellowship [is] with the Father, and with His Son Jesus Christ;
in this we have known love, because He laid down His life for us, and we ought to lay down [our] lives for the brothers;
for this reason, comfort one another, and build up one another, as also you do.
and that is, that I may be comforted together among you, through faith in one another, both yours and mine.
not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as [is] a custom of some, but exhorting, and so much the more as you see the Day coming near.
Iron is sharpened by iron, || And a man sharpens the face of his friend.
Bear the burdens of one another, and so fill up the law of the Christ,
therefore, then, as we have opportunity, may we work the good to all, and especially to those of the household of faith.
The two [are] better than the one, in that they have a good reward by their labor. For if they fall, the one raises up his companion, but woe to the one who falls and there is not a second to raise him up! Also, if two lie down, then they have heat, but how has one heat? And if the one strengthens himself, the two stand against him; and the threefold cord is not quickly broken.
