1 John 1:5 This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. 6 If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth: 7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.

The Basis Of Fellowship

This is why it is so important we are found in His Body – His headship – so that we have that continual fellowship with Him and with each other with the Word of God being ministered to us.
Walk In The Light

That is the basis of fellowship unity and oneness – that we walk continually twentyfour / seven in that light – the light of The Holy Spirit who enlightens the Word to us..
