Worship in Bible Study
Bible Study as we Learn to become more like Christ
Colossians 3:16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
Since you have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit in sincere love of the brethren, love one another fervently with a pure heart, having been born again, not of corruptible seed but incorruptible, through the word of God which lives and abides forever.
1 Peter 1:22 & 23

Worship in Fellowship
In our new testament Bibles the word 'fellowship' is translated from the Greek word Koivwvia, pronounced koinonia which means to share in something that is common. 'When the members of Gang 3:16 meet we share in our common salvation (Jude 3) and our common faith (Titus 1:4). *We also share our successes and failures in our common fight against temptation (1 Corinthians 10:13). Fellowship is a key part of our Monday Bible study gatherings. Our fellowship is not limited to Mondays as members often meet on the job and sometimes two or three will get together during the week to strengthen each other in the Lord.
Matthew 18:20 "for where two or three are gathered in my name, I am there in the midst of them."
Our common possessions Acts 2:44 & 4:32
Act 2:44 And all those who had believed were together and had all things in common;
Act 4:32 And the congregation of those who believed were of one heart and soul; and not one {of them} claimed that anything belonging to him was his own, but all things were common property to them.
Hebrews 10:24 & 25
And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good worlds, not forsakingThe assembling of ourselves together, as is in the manner of some, but exhorting oneAnother, and so much the more as you see the 'Day approaching.Jesus Christ and His teachings are the center of our Monday gatherings. 'We worship Him in our fellowship, in our prayers, in the study of His word and as we eat, enjoying the food He faithfully provides.
