God thinking XIX - Growing In Grace 4

"How can you tell if you are growing in grace?

2     Your fellowship with believers is not broken.

Hebrews 10:25-26, “And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: V26 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.”

It is rebellion against God to go off onto an island unto yourself.  The body of Christ is fitly joined together, not loosely attached.  Jesus draws you to union and accountability, not separation and irresponsibility.  It is always a sure sign of rebellion when you think you know better than God what is good for you.  

You seek times to worship together. 

You seek fellowship with others.
You seek to unite in purpose with others.

How can you tell if you are growing in grace?

Your fellowship with believers is not broken.
