‘…that the fellowship of your faith may become effective through ( in ) The Knowledge of every Good Thing which is in us for CHRIST’S Sake.’ Philemon :6.
‘Fellowship’ is a sharing in common. It is communion; the act of sharing, or holding in common; participation:
What was from the beginning, What we have heard, What we have seen with our eyes, What we beheld and our hands handled, concerning The Word Of Life- and The Life was Manifested, and we have seen and bear witness and proclaim to you The Eternal Life, Which Was With The FATHER and was Manifested To us- What we have seen and heard we proclaim to you also, that you also may have fellowship with us; and indeed our fellowship is with The FATHER, and with HIS SON JESUS CHRIST. And these things we write, so that our joy may be made complete.
And this is The Message we have heard From HIM and announce to you, that GOD Is Light, and In HIM there is no darkness at all. If we say that we have fellowship With HIM and walk in the darkness, we lie and do not practice The Truth; but if we walk In The Light As HE HIMSELF Is In The Light, we have fellowship with one another, and The Blood Of JESUS HIS SON Cleanses us from all sin… 1 John 1:1-7.
‘Faith’ is firm persuasion, a conviction of The Truth based upon hearing:
…However, they did not all heed The Glad Tidings; for Isaiah says, “LORD, who has believed our report?” So faith comes from hearing, and hearing By The Word Of CHRIST. Romans 10:16-17.
Faith is not reposed ‘in’ The Blood; The Death of CHRIST, but ‘In’ The Risen LORD JESUS CHRIST. …“It Is Finished!”… John 19:30.
For example, the A.V., as in the KJV has translated as Romans 3:25, ...WHOM GOD Hath Set Forth to be A Propitiation through faith in HIS Blood, to Declare HIS Righteousness for the Remission of sins that are past, through The Forebearance Of GOD;... This wrongly links "faith" with "in HIS Blood" as if faith is reposed in The Blood ( i.e., the Death ) Of CHRIST. Faith rests in The Living Person. The Greek word, en, translated here as 'in' is instrumental; faith rests in The Living Person; hence the R.V. rightly puts a comma after "through faith," and renders the next phrase "By HIS Blood," which is to be connected with "A Propitiation" CHRIST Became The Propitiation Through HIS Blood ( i.e. HIS Death in Expiatory Sacrifice For sin ). The ERV has this same verse translated as, ...WHOM GOD Set Forth to be A Propitiation, through faith, By HIS Blood, to Shew HIS Righteousness, because of the passing over of the sins done aforetime, in The Forebearance Of GOD;...
...Much more then, having now been Justified By HIS Blood, we shall be Saved from The Wrath Through HIM... Romans 5:9.
...In HIM we have Redemption Through HIS Blood, the Forgiveness of our trespasses, according to The Riches Of HIS Grace... Ephesians 1:7.
...who are Chosen according to The Foreknowledge Of GOD The FATHER, By The Sanctifying Work Of The SPIRIT, that you may obey JESUS CHRIST and be Sprinkled with HIS Blood: May Grace and Peace be yours in Fullest Measure. 1 Peter 1:1-2.
...but if we walk In The Light As HE HIMSELF Is In The Light, we have fellowship with one another, and The Blood Of JESUS HIS SON Cleanses us from all sin… 1 John 1:7.
."I have been crucified with CHRIST; and it is no longer I who live, but CHRIST Lives In me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith In The SON Of GOD, WHO loved me, and Delivered HIMSELF Up For me..." Galatians 2:20.
“Come to ME, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I Will Give you Rest. “Take MY Yoke upon you, and learn from ME, for I AM Gentle And Humble In Heart; and you shall Find Rest for your souls. “For MY Yoke Is Easy, And MY Load Is Light.” Matthew 11:28-30.
We are to subject ourselves to The Righteousness Of GOD; WHO Is JESUS CHRIST; The LORD our Righteousness ( Jeremiah 23:5-6 ): …But By HIS Doing you are In CHRIST JESUS, WHO Became To us Wisdom From GOD, And Righteousness And Sanctification, And Redemption, that, just as It Is Written, “Let him who boasts, boast In The LORD.” 1 Corinthians 1:30-31.
…But The Righteousness based on faith Speaks thus, “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into Heaven?’ ( that is, to bring CHRIST down ), or, ‘Who will descend into the Abyss?’ ( that is, to bring CHRIST up from the dead ).” But what does It Say? “The Word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” – that is The Word Of faith which we are preaching, that if you confess with your mouth JESUS, LORD, and believe in your heart that GOD Raised HIM From the dead, you shall be Saved; for with the heart man believes, resulting in Righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in Salvation. For The Scripture Says, “Whoever believes In HIM will not be disappointed.” For there is no distinction between Jew or Greek ( Gentile ); for The Same Is LORD Of all, Abounding in Riches For all who call upon HIM; for “Whoever will call upon The Name Of The LORD will be Saved.”… Romans 10:6-13 ( Deuteronomy 30:11-14 ).
It is Saved By Grace through faith, “By HIS Blood”: “A Propitiation”.
…”And no one has ascended into Heaven, but HE WHO Descended From Heaven, The SON Of MAN. “And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must The SON Of MAN be lifted up; that whoever believes may In HIM have Eternal Life. “For GOD so loved the world, that HE Gave HIS Only Begotten SON, that whoever believes In HIM should not perish, but have Everlasting Life. “For GOD did not Send The SON Into the world to Judge the world, but that the world should be Saved Through HIM. “He who believes In HIM is not Judged; he who does not believe has been Judged already, because he has not believed In The Name Of The Only Begotten SON Of GOD. “And This Is The Judgement, that The Light Has Come Into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than The Light; for their deeds were evil. “For everyone who does evil hates The Light, lest his deeds should be exposed. “But he who practices The Truth comes to The Light, that his deeds may be manifested as having been Wrought In GOD.” John 3:13-21.
CHRIST Became The Propitiation Through HIS Blood; The Unblemished Sacrifice Once For All; HIS Death The Only Means By Which Reparation, Restoration to ‘Good Condition’ since the fall ( Genesis 3 ) is possible; that we might die to sin and live to Righteousness:
...and HE HIMSELF Bore our sins In HIS Body on the cross, that we might die to sin and live to Righteousness; for By HIS Wounds you were Healed. 1 Peter 2:24.
Hence, it is a continual walk all the days of our life, with no place for the heretical teaching of ‘Once saved always saved’ or 'unconditional eternal security'. Heretical because it is at variance with Sound Doctrine:
“I AM The Resurrection And The Life; he who believes In ME shall Live even if he dies, and everyone who lives and believes In ME shall never die. Do you believe this?” John 11:25-26.
…But all things become visible ( uncovered, laid bare, revealed ) when they are exposed by The Light, for everything that becomes visible is light. For this reason It Says, “Awake, sleeper, And arise from the dead, And CHRIST Will Shine On you.” Therefore be careful how you walk, not as unwise men, but as wise, making the most of your time, because the days are evil. So then do not be foolish, but understand what The Will Of The LORD Is. Ephesians 5:13-17.
‘My little children, I am writing these things to you that you may not sin. And if anyone sins we have An ADVOCATE With The FATHER, JESUS CHRIST The Righteous; and HE HIMSELF Is The Propitiation For our sins; and not For ours only, but also For the whole world…’ 1 John 2:1-2.
...How much severer punishment do you think he will deserve who has trampled under foot The SON Of GOD, and has regarded as unclean The Blood Of The Covenant By Which he was Sanctified, and has insulted The SPIRIT Of Grace?... Hebrews 10:29.
“He who believes in The SON has Eternal Life; but he who does not obey The SON shall not see Life, but The Wrath Of GOD Abides On him.” John 3:36.
...that the fellowship of your faith may become effective through ( in ) The Knowledge of every Good Thing Which is in us for CHRIST'S Sake... Philemon :6.
