Introduction: We as Christan alway use the word fellowship, but what does that mean ? “Fellowship”, we like that word. It has a nice ring to it. In truth, the word fellowship means “things held in common.” It implies standing together on common ground. Imagine the glory of this statement, “God desires to have a close, personal relationship with you, where you and God stand together on common ground.” Sounds good doesn’t it? However, to many it sounds impossible! John doesn’t think so! In fact, he tells us exactly how this can take place. He shows how close communion and intimate fellowship with the Father can be the normal Christian experience, instead of some mystical thing we only hear about, or see in the lives of others.
