     | 7,794 views

    Fellowship between believers is sweet. But there is sour fellowship too. Sweet and sour might be good when it comes to dipping sauce but not when it comes to fellowship. Let’s take a look at the different aspects to sweet and sour fellowship.

    SWEET AND SOUR FELLOWSHIP Talk about picnic; one of two fellowship meals put on by the church-the other being Thanksgiving. It made me think about the subject of fellowship. Fellowship can be very sweet when it’s conducted the right way. But fellowship can also be sour. Sweet and sour might ...read more

    When we take into consideration what will transpire in the judgement it certainly is not unreasonable to believe God has recorded, in heaven, the names of those who have been born again and He has also recorded what they have done as disciples.

    THE LAMB’S BOOK OF LIFE ILLUSTRATION Many years ago there was a very small country church that just had a sanctuary and one small class room. For heat there was a coal stove in the basement, and there was an outhouse located along a hedgerow at the edge of the churches property. Physical ...read more
