We know we have fellowship with Jesus when we experience His presence and have a desire to follow His teachings.
The evidence of genuine fellowship with Christ lies in a transformed life marked by a desire to obey His commands and seek His presence. In the sermon, it is emphasized that no one can entirely attest to their own fellowship with Christ except through introspection and self-examination. As believers, we should reflect on whether we actively seek to treat Jesus as our Lord and recognize Him as the King of Kings in our lives. If our relationship with Him bears the fruit of faith, love, and a desire for holiness, we have assurance of this fellowship. Furthermore, the call to fellowship implies that we have been spiritually awakened to our condition and are actively responding to God's grace.
