“God is faithful, by whom ye are called unto the fellowship of His Son Jesus Christ our Lord.” 1 Cor. 1:9.
In the first nine verses of First Corinthians Jesus is mentioned Nine times!
“God is faithful.” Men and women, not so much. Even other sisters and brothers in Christ, are not always faithful. But God is!
“By whom ye were called.” Called by God in Christ Jesus, a high calling. A fellowship, Koinonia, (Greek). If Jesus is your Savior, you are in partnership with Jesus. The True Owner of everything you and I own.
Marriage. In the Old Testament God says not to hitch and ox with an ass to plow. If you are married, hopefully you are not hitched to an ass. Marriage is a Koinonia, a partnership. Our relationship with Christ is a love relationship. We love Him because He first loved us.
Move ahead with God as your partner. We can face all of the worlds problems with God as our partner. Look to Jesus, He is the solution to all of our frustrations and problems of life. Swimming up stream in a sinful world is only possible in the Koinonia of the Lord Jesus Christ…
