# Fellowship
The word "fellowship" is used to talk about people coming together as friends. These people often like the same things. They often have had the same types of things happen to them in life.
The words “Christian fellowship” are used to talk about the relationship that Christians have with one another. They have Christian fellowship because they all believe in Jesus and have been given the Holy Spirit (see: 2 Corinthians 13:14; Philippians 2:1-2). Christians have fellowship with one another when they come together as friends. They share with one another. They work together to help others. They praise God together (see: Acts 2:42-47).
Christians also have fellowship with God (see: 1 John 1:3). This is possible because of Jesus’ death on the cross. His sacrifice caused people’s sins to be forgiven. There is now peace between God and those who believe in Jesus. They can have fellowship with God through prayer and the Holy Spirit (see: Ephesians 2:11-22; Hebrews 4:14-16).
Christians also have fellowship with Jesus (see: 1 Corinthians 1:9). Paul wrote about having fellowship in Jesus’ sufferings (see: Philippians 3:10). Paul wrote this to write about how he wanted to have similar things happen to him that happened to Jesus. He even wanted to suffer like Jesus suffered. He wanted to be like Jesus in this life so that he would be saved and live with Jesus forever.
