"One Anothering"

"One Anothering"



What a beautiful comcept. Doing Christian duties for one another and for the good of ones self for the purpose of a unified body in the household of faith. The blessing here is that in seeking the good of the other brethern we promote the good of ourselves. May God grant that we really practice "one anothering". For it is doing God's will in loving our neighbors as ourselves. The Scriptures are suffucient in give us the direction in "one anothering":


(Mal 3:16) Then they that feared the LORD spoke often one to another: and the LORD hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the LORD, and that thought upon his name.

(Joh 13:35) By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.

(Rom 12:10) Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honor preferring one another;

(Eph 4:32) And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.

(Eph 5:21) Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.

(Col 3:9) Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds;

(Jam 5:16) Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

(1Pe 4:9-10) Use hospitality one to another without grudging. s every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.

(1Pe 5:5) Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.
