Quote: “Biblical community is first of all the sharing of common life in Christ.” —J.D. Grear
Objection to community
A. I don’t have anything in common.
B. I don’t have time in my schedule.
Quote: “The Christ follower outside of community is living in disobedience. Community is assumed. If I am out of community, I am out of God’s will.” —Ed Stetzer, Transformational Groups
C. I don’t want to be betrayed
Opportunity of community
A. Affection for each other
Romans 12:9-10 Let love be genuine. Abhor what is evil; hold fast to what is good. Love one another with brotherly affection. Outdo one another in showing honor.
B. Accountability to one another
