The Communion of the Saints
As I prepared today for Sunday, I was studying the communion of the saints. What is the communion of the saints? It is the Spirit-created and empowered fellowship of all true believers who are united together in love by their union with Christ. They have spiritual, but tangible communion with one another as they tangibly share in corporate worship, use spiritual gifts, live together with Christian graces, share material goods and talents with one another, and speak gospel truth into one another's lives for mutual edification.
