The Tie That Binds - Fellowship

Our Pastor asserts that the Apostle Paul was the personification of "fellowship that binds." Paul had vertical fellowship with the Triune God and horizontal fellowship with about 100 different, named individuals in the New Testament - not to mention probably several hundred unnamed believers. Colossians 4 gives us at least three different functions of fellowship. Tychicus seems to have journeyed "in fellowship" with Paul sharing joys and agonies for about 4,000 miles!
