School lesson K. Klein. Pastor k Mountain Church March 5. 1355 SHIP OF AN LOVE 2:42-47; Colossian John 4:7-8.

A* n\ states in Galatian; ,r've are all the chil by faith in Christ as many of you a; baptized into Christ Christ. There is neith Greek, there is neithet free, there is neither male: for ye are all at Jesus.” The deep llowship that was the tieism by the Roman was the cause of the uence of Christianity society, for in the men could know the ex divine community, basic instincts in man for community.

This fellow ship is based upon the love of God which seeks men to live with Him throughout eternity. Rut not only is this fellowship of God’s love an experience of eternity, it is also an experience here on earth as we work and worship and play with other people who have been re deemed into the divine family. This fellowship of the Church which we so often ignore in mod ern life is absolutely' necessary' to the proper growth of the Church. We find a picture of this follow ship clearly expressed in the sec ond chapter of Acts. As a result of the descent of the Spirit on the Day of Pentecost ,th e Apostles were empowered to proclaim the gospel, and n multitude of believ ers were won to the Church. No tice that these early converts “con tinued steadfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers. And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and signs were done by the apostles. And all that believed were together, and had all things in common; and sold then possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need. And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart. Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.” When the Church is true to its Lord and its beginning it satisfies all the needs of men. Paul lists ton Christian virtues in Colossians 3:12-17 which must bo cultivated by Christian people if they are to continue in the fel lowship of the Church, and if they are to contribute to the growth of the Church. (1) compassion for all men who are in need because the love of Christ goes out to all men; (2) kindness toward others; (3) lowliness of mind which re sults in our proper estimate of our selves; (4) a spirit of gentlemen liness, or politeness; (5) patience which gives us the ability to endure the things that befall us; (6) for bearance which gives us the ability of self-control; (7) a willingness to forgive others just as Christ forgives us; (8) the spirit of fel lowship or love; (9) the peace of Christ that gives us calm in the midst of turmoil; and (10) eternal gratitude to God for what He has done for us. Our passage from I John is self explanatory. It is based upon the fact that God first loved us and gave Himself in our behalf. In re sponse to this love, we too must live in love. “Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.” —The Navy battleships, which are given the arbitrary designation BB, are built to defeat the most powerful vessel that an enemy can put to sea.
