True Fellowship - One To Another

Oh, that all the Lord's people were prophets, and that the Lord would put His Spirit upon them," (Numbers 11:29).

This is what the Priesthood of Believers is All ABOUT- this eliminates one man leadership and allows the Holy Spirit to guide and direct any fellowship that we as Believers are to have together.

Love one another (John 13:34, 35).
- Be devoted to one another (Romans 12:10).
- Honor one another above yourselves (Romans 12:10).
- Live in harmony with one another (Romans 12:16).
- Stop passing judgment on one another (Romans 14:13).
- Edify one another (Romans 14:19).
- Instruct (admonish) one another. (Romans 15:14).
- Accept one another (Romans 15:7).
- Have concern for one another (I Corinthians 12:25).
- Carry one another's burdens (Galatians 6:2).
- Forgive one another (Ephesians 4:32).
- (Ephesians 5:21).
- Agree with one another (Philippians 4:2).
- Teach one another (Colossians 3:16).
- Encourage one another (I Thessalonians 4:18).
- Build each other up (I Thessalonians 5:11).
- Live in peace with one another (I Thessalonians 5:13).
- Be kind to each other (I Thessalonians 5:15).
- Spur one another to good deeds (Hebrews 10:24).
- Confess sins to one another (James 5:16).
- Offer hospitality to one another (I Peter 4:9).
- Serve each other (I Peter 4:10).
- Show humility to one another (I Peter 5:5).
- Have fellowship with one another (I John 1:7).

"One another" is all encompassing phrase and needs no one but Jesus Christ as the High Priest and we His Temple to come together and have relationship and fellowship as Christians with one another, no special program, no directors, or masters of ceremony, no hocus pocus, no special buildings or incorporations, no name but the wonderful name of YESHUA...JESUS THE KING!

The Holy Spirit is our guide and teacher of ALL TRUTH!

If all you have is a bunch of a little ears coming to hear a Greek oration or one man speech....this is impossible, it rules out the Priesthood of Believers.

If our practices do not reflect the scripture and only the traditions of men, then they are unscriptural, anti-biblical and therefore Anti-Christ!

Isn't it interesting how easy the wolves came in and gobbeled up the sheep and relegated them to silence in a pew.....no wonder they stink!

They are dead men, doing dead men's deeds, just like the pagans and their priest in their so called times of worship....no difference.

If you want to see the restoration of the body of Christ it is time that those that refer to themselves as the EKKLESIA, translated as the Church by the evil hierarchy of Catholcism and Popery turn to practice those traditions that the Word of God and the Apostles laid down. Not the traditions of men as spelled out by Ignatius and others who began the formulation of Bishop, Priest and Pastor worship..... WE ARE TO PASTOR EVERY NEW BELIEVER...disciple them by the leading of the Holy Spirit that calls all men to count in their faith in Christ to allow Him to be their ALL and ALL!

The "church" is crying out for RESTORATION, not REVIVAL and not REFORMATION, let those things of the early Christians before the traditions of men came in be RESTORED to the leading and direction of GOD'S HOLY SPIRIT FOR WHOM HE GAVE TO THE "CALLED OUT ONE's OF GOD- the ekklesia the real word for God's people before the great kings of Popery changed it all into a misdirection of "nullifying the Commandments of God for the Traditions of Men".

Thus Paul wrote not as a chide against the believers at Corinth but as this is the practice .....
The gathering together whether by two or more gathered in His NAME it is based upon the full priesthood of all believers with mutual edification and mutual upbuilding for the purpose of personal strengthening, similar to the model that is found in

I Corinthians 14:26.

26 What is it then, brethren? When ye come together, each one hath a psalm, hath a teaching, hath a revelation, hath a tongue, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying. 27 If any man speaketh in a tongue, let it be by two, or at the most three, and that in turn; and let one interpret: 28 but if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to God. 29 And let the prophets speak by two or three, and let the others discern. 30 But if a revelation be made to another sitting by, let the first keep silence. 31 For ye all can prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may be exhorted; 32 and the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets; 33 for God is not a God of confusion, but of peace.

Paul continues his instruction for the fellowship meeting of believers which makes clear that this is instruction- the tradition of the Apostles, and not a criticism of the way things were done, but how they are to be done. One cannot separate this verse out from the rest of his instruction of practice for the ekklesia in the rest of the following verses - that His "called out one's" when they meet to fellowshipare to do.
How the orthodox church in it's effort to replace the Holy Spirit as the director of fellowship and make a man or men the center of the meeting, amazes me how they can twist the scripture to their own destruction, and leave the Holy Spirit knocking on their building doors wanting inside to express Himself through the entire body aside from a "one man show"
Let us if we choose to come together at least be Biblical for anything other is anti-Biblical and reflects the traditions of men and their pagan practices. Let us seek and serve the High Priest and let Him express Himself through those scripture refers to as Kings and Priest unto Himself. Let us practice "one to another" and I assure you, we will "turn the world upside down" as the early body of Christ did.
