Two or Three plus One
Two or three in true fellowship because He is thereTalking together with humbleness of mindNo one above another - All equal in ChristForbearing a brother’s doctrine which seems different to our ownForgiving another for treading on our toesLongsuffering a brother’s long-winded enthusiasmTeaching a lesson learned from experienceAdmonishing each other with a word of wisdomJust two or three and Christ - One body in Him
One with a psalm, a piece of badly written poetryOne with a hymn, an anthem of long agoAnother with a spiritual song fresh off a new CDOne edifying with a timely piece of encouragementOne exhorting with a word of adviceWilling to be crucified by another a little over zealousOne comforting with a revelation of salvationOne interpreting another’s foreign languageTwo or three in the fellowship of Christ
Loving unconditionally which is the bond of perfectionShowing mercy from the depth of our soulTwo in agreement so let it be done in heavenHelping the widow and fatherless brave their afflictionVisiting someone poorly with a spiritual tonic Fellowshipping on a picnic down by the lakeSitting, just watching the sun go downTalking over a biscuit and a cup of coffeeTwo or three united in Christ
Enjoying each others company in His presenceWorshipping Him in Spirit and in truthRejoicing in His grace toward us in our everyday livesTogether so much the more as we see the day approachingThe Holy Spirit administering the needed giftsGuiding the callings together at the proper timeIn the two or three plus OneOur hearts burning with His presenceChrist in the midst - The Church UniversalThe God of two or three

References:Mat 18:19 Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven. For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.1Jo 1:3 That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ. And these things write we unto you, that your joy may be full. 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. If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth: 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.Col 3:12 Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye. And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness. And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.Phi 2:1 If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies, fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind. Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves. Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others. Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: but made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: and being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.Jam 1:27 Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.
Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, my strength and my redeemer. Psalm 19:14© Stephen Share 2006
