"Truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ." -- I John 1:3.
The word "fellowship" appears four times in this chapter, a translation of the Greek "koinonos." Synonymous with partnership. (Strong's Number 2842)
The word had a familiar ring to me, and then I remembered that "koinos" referred to the Greek language as spoken by the "common" people.
"Common" can of course have a derogatory sense, but here I see it as wholly positive, in that those who choose to walk in the light share God together, have Him in common. He is big enough to share.
