The Bible emphasizes that true communion with God is achieved through faith in Christ, who reconciles us and brings us into a relationship with Him.
In 1 John 1:3, it is stated that the purpose of the Gospel is to bring believers into fellowship with God. This communion is not merely a historical reality confined to the early church but is an ongoing experience for those who genuinely believe in Jesus Christ. By nature, we are estranged from God, but through faith in Christ, we are reconciled and adopted as His children. This relationship allows for real fellowship and access to God's grace, inviting believers to enjoy His presence and blessings continuously.
