  1. Felibicus, chapter number one.

  2. Yeah, beginning at verse number one, and we'll read through

  3. verse number eleven. And the Bible says in paula intended,

  4. it's the servants of Jesus Christ to all the saints

  5. in Christ Jesus which are at Philippi. So he's speaking

  6. to the saints and it's also speaking with the bishops

  7. and the deacons. This ill is an established church. You

  8. got to member that the apostle Paul was wise enough, uh,

  9. for this gentile church and this church that was coming up,

  10. to establish a system, an organization, a structure in which

  11. he called church. And there's different churches. First of all,

  12. churches started in homes, from house to house, they went

  13. breaking bread called fellowship. Okay, they went from house to

  14. house breaking bread, and they had fellowships transformed into a

  15. hub and then to our nice sanctuary in which we

  16. have today. So he began to put order in the

  17. church and to ordained bishops and deacons for the administration

  18. of the church. All right, let me not stay that

  19. too long. Ambisi and deacons are not special gifts. They

  20. are officers for administration. Superintendent came oversee you, that's for administration. Purposes.

  21. I'm first a pastor. Hallelujah, because that's my gift.

  22. He said.

  23. Grace be unto you and peace from God, our Father,

  24. and from the Lord Jesus Christ. I thank my God

  25. upon every remembrance of you talking to this Pacific church.

  26. Say this Pacific church, he says, always in every prayer

  27. of mine for you all, making request with joy, he said,

  28. when I'm pray for y'all, I pray for y'all.

  29. I'm happy to pray for y'all. It's some mother churches.

  30. I pray for a man. I almost had a fit.

  31. All the hell they.

  32. Was going through and all the stuff that we had

  33. to go out and try to fix and fix. Except listen,

  34. I had a fit. It was a burden.

  35. But for you guys, you guys have made it easy

  36. for me to.

  37. Pray for you, So he said, making request with joy.

  38. Why for your fellowship in the gospel from the first

  39. day until now, Being confident is everything that he would

  40. be gone had begun a good work, and you will

  41. perform it or complete it unto the day of Jesus Christ.

  42. Even that it is right for me, he says, it's

  43. right for me to think of this of you all,

  44. because I have you in my heart and as much

  45. as both in my bonds. And then the defense and

  46. confirmation of the Gospel. Ye all are partakers of my grace,

  47. for God is my witness. How greatly I long after

  48. you and in the bowels of Jesus Christ. And this

  49. I pray that your love may abound yet more and

  50. more knowledge and in judgment, that you may approve things

  51. that are excellent, that she may be sincere and without

  52. offense to the day of Christ, been filled with the

  53. fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ. Until the

  54. glory and praise of God. Somebody shot a man from

  55. that particular scripture. I would like to use a thought

  56. because when you look at this book, this book only

  57. has four chapters. In the four chapters, it has about

  58. one hundred and twenty verses. Within the one hundred and

  59. twenty verses, there are sixteen to twenty verses that talks

  60. about joy. It really reflects the attitude of the pastor

  61. towards his church or this particular church. And he says,

  62. I could not do what I have done without your support.

  63. And so I would like to title this message cornanea

  64. what a fellowship. Tell your neighbors and neighbor Cornania, what

  65. a fellowship? Say today you gonna find out what Cornornia is. Oh,

  66. you gonna learn something. Holly Nujah hoighy knew Yah Cornaneia,

  67. what a fellowship.

  68. Father.

  69. We thank you now for your loving kindness, your tender mercies.

  70. I thank you for what you've given you a servant

  71. on today to serve through your people. I thank you

  72. for the sweet community of the Holy God. Said God,

  73. this word cannot give life without the spirit of God.

  74. So I thank you right now God, that the word

  75. of God is spirit, and in this life always it

  76. comes out of my mouth on today, Thank you God.

  77. It would touch the hearts and go into the deep

  78. treasures of the heart to produce a harvest like number before.

  79. So help us now in the name of Jesus, we praise.

  80. Somebody.

  81. Shout a man, I write high, five at least seven people,

  82. and tell them, what a fellowship, what a fellowship? Come out,

  83. talk to him real loud, Come on, alright, come out

  84. saying lie, said loud, what a fellowship? What a fellowship?

  85. My brother, Let's break it down. Let's break it down,

  86. Let's go to work. Let's break it down. What a fellowship?

  87. You know, I wanted to name this type. I wanted

  88. to really tightle this this this, this discermon ain't no church.

  89. Like the one I got.

  90. I did, I did. I didn't know if y'all could

  91. handled that, you know, but I should have known better.

  92. You'll know, knowing Vip, you know that we we could

  93. have done that. You know I could have done that,

  94. you know, like I ain't no woman, you know like

  95. the one I got. You know. And then when you

  96. think about your children, there's no other children, even though

  97. you may celebrate other children, regardless of that, there is

  98. no other children like the one you have. I mean sacrifice,

  99. the commitment, the dedication, the devotion, the sense of forgiveness

  100. to you know, look beyond our faults and still meet

  101. everyone of our needs. There is not a fellowship in here.

  102. That's not a company. That's not a family in here.

  103. That's not a perfect family. There's no perfect parents, there's

  104. no perfect children, there's no perfect spouse.

  105. Can I get a witness in here? Hey man?

  106. When we come together, we come at odds with one

  107. another because we come with our differences, and with our differences,

  108. either we can tear things up or we can build

  109. things up.

  110. Oh boy, which y'all help me here.

  111. It's okay for us to be different because we different anyway.

  112. I'm not trying to be like you, and you don't

  113. have to be like me. I'm equipped a certain way,

  114. you equip a certain way. There's some places in my

  115. life that I'm strong and you're weak, and you're weak

  116. and I'm strong, and vice versa. But there is no

  117. perfect relationships. No matter when people come together, we're gonna

  118. have some problems. And either we can tear each other

  119. down or we can use our differences to build each

  120. other rep I wish I had a witness in here,

  121. so when they make batteries, minister women, I found out

  122. that there's a positive and the negative and it can't

  123. work together unless you have the two together in order

  124. to make a charge. And if you learn how to

  125. work together with your differences, you're gonna learn how to

  126. make a charge. Because you ain't got to pray like

  127. I pray. You ain't got to sing like I sing.

  128. Come on, you ought to just be you. And if

  129. you don't sing, don't sing, clap your hands somebody shot.

  130. Clap your hands and say, hey man, I'm just missing.

  131. What do you like to pray?

  132. Holly? Do ya? So we have these differences again, we

  133. can have these differences. You gotta find a way that

  134. how do my differences? How do our differences support one

  135. another so that we can improve? How can we break

  136. these differences together so that we can be productive in

  137. our relationship Because it's impossible for two to walk together

  138. unless they agree. And there is a term, a term

  139. knowledge that we don't agree. We are to learn how

  140. to disagree and still go with the flow. We got

  141. so many people breaking up and breaking down, and systems

  142. breaking up and breaking down because of the differences.

  143. We're hell long life for him to talk. I don't

  144. like listen. This is what's wrong with the church.

  145. Man, I'm a mother polers, I'm Paul, he said, Man,

  146. which one of y'all was baptized?

  147. Which one which one of y'all didn Christ? Did we?

  148. Did we die for y'all? He say no, It was

  149. Christ who died, died for you all. So we want

  150. to celebrate our fellowship. Hey man, here a victory and

  151. praise for leadership success. When we think about Cornania, it

  152. is company known as fellowship. If you take it notes

  153. right there down and there's a company known as fellowship.

  154. And if it's not just the fellowship, and we'll get

  155. into deeper details about where the fellowship is, but it's

  156. also can be it's a synonym of communion, communion to

  157. mean to break bread with one another, to have communion

  158. with each other. Thirdly, is can be considered a partnership.

  159. And when we think about these three things, the fellowship,

  160. the communion, and then we think about the partnership, it's

  161. all's involves that when we together, when we together, then

  162. we we participate with one another. It's not right for

  163. the praise seemed to be praising God and those in

  164. the audience is just looking at him and says, if

  165. this is a show.

  166. Howley knwya? How they knew ya?

  167. That even when God blew into Adam, something had to

  168. come back to God.

  169. Oh I wish I had somebody up in here, all right.

  170. It's a reciprocal thing that if something is blown in you,

  171. if something is given to you, you ought to be

  172. willing to give back. If God has been good to you,

  173. would you give him praise God had been good to you?

  174. Will you clap your hands? If God had been good

  175. to you? With you open your mouth and tell him,

  176. thank you, how to do your it's reciproc He's on

  177. a whole nother lot.

  178. Other than us.

  179. I don't know if we can really give him what

  180. he needs, what he deserved, but we ought to be

  181. able to give him what he acts for.

  182. Oh, I wish I had somebody up in here the

  183. Bible of the plants.

  184. Let everything that have breath. That's what I want, what

  185. I want. If you got breadth, if you got breath

  186. in your body, if you got breath in your body,

  187. what new card requires of you to give him? Praise?

  188. Ah?

  189. This fellowship of this community, in this partnership is involves

  190. for us to participate with one another.

  191. It's wrong for me.

  192. You know, I'm the kind of person that if if

  193. I cook, somebody else are to wash the dishes.

  194. Come on, now, how they do you?

  195. I'm the kind of person that if I bring home

  196. the bacon, somebody else are cooking.

  197. Come on, somebody, come on, man, they do you? How

  198. they do you? Come on?

  199. If I'm doing the laundry, somebody want to be able

  200. to clean up the living rooms? They got the trash?

  201. Come on, somebody, how to do you?

  202. And our house?

  203. It shouldn't just be one person doing all of the work.

  204. Mama's mama. You should not be doing all the work.

  205. I hate to.

  206. Daddy, Daddy, Daddy, daddy, daddy, you should not be doing

  207. all the work by yourself. Daddy. Then I said, right,

  208. Doddy too. All right? And if you got any children

  209. that were born of a man, did I say that

  210. right of a man? You didn't make that baby. Oh,

  211. I'm gonna get in trouble money. You didn't make that

  212. by everybody yourself. So quit depending on your grandma to

  213. raise that baby. That is not her baby, that's her

  214. grind baby. I know she done got soft and he

  215. done got soft along the way with the grand baby.

  216. They get away with everything, now huh. But when they

  217. get away with everything, you cause the other people to

  218. not take responsibility for what their part is in the relationship.

  219. I wish you clap your heads right there. I know

  220. y'all don't like that. Hardly knew you.

  221. And if you can't catch up with him, but he work.

  222. All right, and he don't show up on the doorstop

  223. and bring no papers, no milk, similart and that other

  224. kind of milk they drink hip for me and I

  225. knew I got a couple of week. If they don't

  226. do that that some kind.

  227. Of way or the other.

  228. You ought to get some child support. You ought to

  229. get a little cut of that chat if he get

  230. paid every week or she get paid every week. Because

  231. that's some single fathers too, they get paid every week.

  232. You want to look for your cut. Matter of fact,

  233. you want to be right up in their face street.

  234. Where my cut at? Come on, somebody I do.

  235. So it's about participation, Okay, I don't want to participation,

  236. but sharing with one another. It's about building community communications

  237. in unity. We ought to be able to have one

  238. at least one or two decent conversations without argument.

  239. Oh I wish I had a ah, y'all, don't wanna.

  240. Colinela involves from a practical, practical perspective, but also spiritual.

  241. Is spiritual communion.

  242. So on First Sunday we do what we call the Eucharists,

  243. which is founding First Corinthians one in nine when we

  244. come together to break bread one with the other. But

  245. as we break bread one another, that's really showing our

  246. fellowship with one another, because we are to wait on

  247. each other before we take it. That's unit till okay,

  248. somebody's our community.

  249. We are to communicating unity.

  250. To make sure we wait for one another because we

  251. getting ready to partake in a fellowship, and our fellowship

  252. is with Christ.

  253. That we keep his death in remembrance.

  254. Everybody, Now, if you're not if you don't have a

  255. deep relationship and you ain't got to have, just remember

  256. this that when you take communion, nobody can judge you.

  257. We just do it with us. God is your judge.

  258. Can I say that one more time? I say, God

  259. is your judge. He know what you did yesterday, you

  260. know what you did this morning, and he know what

  261. you're gonna do tomorrow. So you are to examine yourself,

  262. not compared to me or anybody else. Come on, examine yourself.

  263. See if you start examining yourself, other people that got

  264. examine you. And I said, douya, huh. Listen, I know

  265. I ain't the best at all that, this, that and

  266. the other. I know that I acknowledge that I've examined myself.

  267. I'm definitely not the best singer. But I will sing

  268. out loud, I'll sing in your choir. I'll just start

  269. taking over your song. I'll take over the quash if

  270. I like it. I ain't like that part, ah, But

  271. the other part I ain't like it right now. I

  272. don't never know all the word, but I sure will

  273. take your poor huh. And I'm not intimidated by people

  274. who are better than me. I'm I need to be

  275. around folks that's better than me so that I can

  276. see something so that I can't grow. If you the

  277. only one that you the best in your group in everything, listen,

  278. they gotta be sucking.

  279. The juice out of you.

  280. You ought to be exhausted because all everybody got a

  281. call on you to get the answer. Come on, somebody,

  282. if you are to ort to be somebody in the

  283. group that you ought to be able to ask them,

  284. what do you think? Oh? I wish I had a

  285. neighbor right there. Hallelujah, Glory to God. So there's you.

  286. Charrisis communion this also meaning the breaking of bread. I

  287. remember the Old Testament and Acts. Remember Acts two and

  288. forty two that they went from house to house breaking bread.

  289. You know, like we come together right here breaking bread.

  290. We have the Apostles doctrine, and then we shared with

  291. one another. In other words, whatever you need it, I

  292. had it, so I was able to give it. Let's

  293. get back to that church that's quit being so stingy

  294. in church. Well, let's quit being so selfish in church.

  295. Let's become selfless. Let's be able to you know, have

  296. a hand helping, a helping hand to help somebody lift

  297. their hands up. Listen, we're not handing out, no handouts.

  298. We don't want to cripple nobody. Or I'll teach you

  299. something now. We ain't trying to cripple nobody. But we're

  300. trying to give you a hand up. And every now

  301. and again people come to you because they need a

  302. hand up. You know who's coming out for a handout

  303. because you done gave to them the last thirty times.

  304. But the people that showed that showed up, that need

  305. a hand up, you ain't never help them because you

  306. don't exhausted everything you had on the ones who oh, okay,

  307. well shout shout horghly do you shout shayl shout hordly?

  308. Do you? I hardly do you.

  309. I'm gonna help somebody with their hands to be lifted up.

  310. It's also an opportunity for fellowship with one another. And

  311. that's why the bug of Hebrews seeing twenty five said,

  312. do not for sake, tell your neighbors, do not forsake,

  313. quit listen to these people on Facebook, and quit.

  314. Listen to other church people. Church people got it wrong.

  315. They knew, they knew because they ain't never study this

  316. word colonel.

  317. They ain't study cordoneal.

  318. They don't know the details of the deeps of the

  319. Greek word of colonia. They got this American thing that

  320. you just choose and just crisis in your heart. That's

  321. why you ain't getting no better because you got them

  322. in your heart. You're hiding in a cave. Come on, somebody,

  323. Holly Nujah, how you gonna get better? And you just

  324. hiding and hanging out by yourself. You telling me you've

  325. been your only teacher. Somebody had to teach you, Holly Nujah.

  326. Well you know that's the white man book he is.

  327. But you got some white man language in you too.

  328. Callin Juja if you live in the Maryland, I don't

  329. care what you saying God, what your believe on. Somebody

  330. taught you you didn't just get this osmosis out of

  331. the air. Hallelujah, even Jesus, Come on, somebody, Halley Lujah

  332. had to go to the wilderness. Holley, do you had

  333. to learn obedience?

  334. Come on through the things that need? Something?

  335. That is that right? Somebody shot a man? Or this

  336. good teaching right here. Clap your hands, Halley, do you

  337. clap your hands?

  338. Listen?

  339. This here involves actors sharing, sharing resources to help those

  340. that in need. So and it's important that disministry is

  341. a ministry. We ought to be looking forward to meeting

  342. other people's needs. If y'all want to think about the

  343. definition of ministry, Ministry is the meeting of the people

  344. where there is a need. If you want to ever

  345. want to start, you want to start ministry. Ministry is

  346. that finding people where they are in need, and so

  347. you minister to that need. Come on with somebody hallelujah,

  348. So you minister it to that need and involves encurriaging,

  349. inspiring and empowering to leadership, support and ministry. Somebody shout

  350. what a a fellowship? Come on, shout it again, what

  351. a fellowship? Now? You can have all of this stuff

  352. on walk and have it on paper. You can have

  353. it on the books until it's active. It's nothing because

  354. faith without works is dead. Holley, dojah, you can say

  355. what you're gonna do all day, but you need to

  356. do it. Don't don't tell me, don't show me. I'm

  357. for a Missouri baby. You got to show me what

  358. you got, Holly Nojah. I tell people all the time. Boy,

  359. when I get on that dumbino tape, you gotta show

  360. me you're talking and all that and almicht old baby,

  361. you know, and I know bad when you get on

  362. there yesterday. Boy, I want some folks that I so bad.

  363. I talked so bad to him. I would talk to

  364. him and doing it cause like y'all talk trash, but

  365. you ain't got nothing to back it up. Yeah, we're

  366. gonna go wall then we gonna do this.

  367. We gonna do that.

  368. W every the Lord put it on our spirit. Well,

  369. you about to get active cause he show ain't gonna

  370. push you out there. Huh. You got to show him

  371. something to tell you that. You got to show him something,

  372. Holleyluja corner. Now it's deed whathing just soiza right there down.

  373. We ain't coming just together to have a someone group together.

  374. Gotta be some prayer in that. Come on, somebody, fellowship.

  375. Ain't just pot lucks. You done turned it around. Everything

  376. we talk about fellowship. We think fellowship. Fellowship is what

  377. we do in the fellowship hall. The devil is a lie, hallelujah.

  378. Fellowship is any time we come together to share it

  379. with one another, the common goals and purposes in which

  380. God has placed in my life.

  381. Amen.

  382. In other words, connor Neial is a shared bond for unity,

  383. love and active contribution. Somebody shot a man outside of that,

  384. connor Neill is a partnership. Somebody shot partnership again.

  385. Let me just tell you, I can't do this by myself.

  386. I mean, I'm up here. All my medicine come up here.

  387. They do what I do.

  388. Them, babies can do what I do, Okay. I'm just

  389. called to do it. So I'm standing here and I

  390. do what I do, okay. But nobody can do what

  391. we do without our partnership. We cannot be successful without

  392. our partnership. You know what partnership does. Partnership is that man,

  393. if two are together, they're stronger than the one.

  394. Oh I wish I had somebody. Hallelujah.

  395. When we talk about our fellowship, the reason we're strong

  396. because we connected together with the link together. Hallelujah. We're

  397. threaded together. It makes us stronger when we work it together. Hallelujah.

  398. In other words, it discriputs the weight. Woo. I wish

  399. I had somebody up in here, hallelujah. I said, it

  400. discripules the weight. Everything ain't got to be on me.

  401. And you crazy if you're gonna let it be on you.

  402. You crazy that you got to do everything passing you

  403. crazy if you got to open up the door and

  404. sweep the floor and drive the vand man, you got

  405. some other gifted people in that church. Why would you

  406. prevent film from partnering with you. You may not be

  407. an evangelist, but there's some EVANGELI.

  408. You may not profit us out, but I ain't an

  409. say that I'm not some profits profits.

  410. Man, you can't do tell you you can't do everything

  411. by yourself.

  554. You know why they blame it on me. We're in partnership.

  555. He had like fifty fifty fifty fifty point partnership.

  556. So you did it.

  557. I did it.

  558. We fitty fitty fit fitted.

  559. Come on, now, if you ever see a brother down,

  560. sister down, ain't just gonna passing up if you can

  561. help them, help him up. Come on, y'all say we're

  564. us one to another? Oh God, I wish I had somebody, hallelujah.

  565. Will help us one to another, hallelujah. We'll say, not

  566. only that, we also pursue our purposes together. And so

  567. when we think about this text interesting texts because now

  568. the apostle Paul is writing to the church at Philippi

  569. and he says to them, man, listen, I pray for you,

  570. and you pray for me. He says, listen, I have

  571. you deeply within my heart. He said, I think it's

  572. right for me to think life is for you. And

  573. he says that because of their fellowship. So the first

  574. thing I'd like to just share real quick is that

  575. our fellowship leads us to be thankful unto God for you. Hallelujah.

  576. Our fellowship leads us to be thankful. Somebody shout faithful,

  577. Oh God, yes, yes, just be faithful for whom God

  578. has brought to you. Eat the good, spit out the bat, hallelujah. Again.

  579. Our fellowship leads us to be thankful for for you,

  580. unto God.

  581. For you.

  582. Here's the scripture, verse number three. He says, I thank you.

  583. Look at that.

  584. Come on, somebody, but the last time you told him,

  585. and I thank you, man, come on, listen every now

  586. and again, well, not all the almost all the time.

  587. I didn usually take my wife out to eat. I do,

  588. I do, and and I use my debit card and

  589. and I pay for it. And then after I get

  590. through and I get full of fat, and we just

  591. had a brown, a.

  592. Chocolate trip brown and will greenish. I said, we're gonna.

  593. And the thing about us is that we don't have to.

  594. We can save money actually eating out because we eat

  595. our meals together. So whatever cast fourteen dollars, I said,

  596. your meal, I said, we split them. She said, now

  597. we're fourteen. I said, no, what my meal was seven dollars.

  598. Yours was seven dollars. Come on and I fellowship. But

  599. when I do that, after the meal is paid for,

  600. I tell my wife, thank you. Listen, especially when you

  601. can't pay people. Huh, administry and all of the service

  602. that you guys do here at the service listen. Forgive

  603. me that I haven't said it publicly enough. Oh God, Haley, Nojah.

  604. But every now and again, all the past by and

  605. say thank you such the djer, thank you, thank you,

  606. thank you, thank you for what you're doing. I'd have

  607. known something about you, like the cakes in the corn bread.

  608. Appreciate Listen. You just got to have a gratitude of

  609. being thankful to other people. Oh I wish I had

  610. a nighbor right there, all right. I know I ain't

  611. hollering the script. That's all right, so he says, I

  612. thank my God. Watch this upon every remembrance of you.

  613. Can I tell you this that I don't just thank

  614. you in front of your face, but in my spirit

  615. and my soul, in my mind and in my body,

  616. I'm thanking God for you.

  617. The reason being is that because we.

  618. Can't be where we are if it had not been

  619. for you, Oh God, you ought to clap your head,

  620. and you couldn't be where you are if it had

  621. not been for us. You ought to give God praise

  622. right there, hallelujah. So in remembrance of you, even when

  623. I'm not with you, uh huh, I have a spirit

  624. of saying thank you, hallelujah. I have a grateful spirit

  625. to say thank you and appreciate you and remembers of you,

  626. he says. Always watch this in every prayer, mind, he said,

  627. every prayer, he says, I rejoice to pray for you

  628. with joy. In other words, I ain't condemned nobody in

  629. this church now yet. I mean I ain't had no

  630. bad word for nobody, not even life. I had a

  631. meeting with my family the other day with all of

  632. the negative things that came out of that. Regardless of that, listen,

  633. the only thing I could do with speak life into them,

  634. the only thing I can do in the relationship, and

  635. we're gonna be partners in relationship. I can't condemn you

  636. because you're the one that's gonna bless me. How am

  637. I gonna condemn something that's supposed to bless me?

  638. How am I gonna.

  639. Condemn a gift? Come on, somebody, Holly nuw ya, you

  640. was a gift giving to me. How I'm gonna condemn

  641. a gift in which I've been given? In other words,

  663. folk might have left, but you stayed. See, great faithfulness

  664. is not measured when things are easy, holley jujah. Let

  665. me say that again. Faithfulness is not measured when things

  666. are easy. Faithfulness is measured when you got a little

  667. trouble on your hand. Hallelujah.

  668. Ah.

  669. Faithfulness is tested when you're going through a test. It

  670. shows that you're still here. So I thank God that

  671. you're still here. Yeah, there was a brother and say, hey, man,

  672. I don't understand what all you're going through and what
