In this series, we’ve explored many of the “one another” passages in the Bible.  God’s call is clear.  He cares how we treat one another.  And living “on mission” means learning how to practically love one another. We call it Love Out Loud. As the family of God grows, it’s made up of people who are not like us, who have learned different behaviors, and who see the world through very different colored glasses. The church is not merely a place we go, it is designed to be a place we call home and people we call family. We are a “family of believers”. Today we learn that we are called to carry each other’s burdens AND to carry our own load. Galatians 5:26-6:10

Today, we are focusing on the “one another” emphasized by Paul in Ephesians 6:18, “…pray in the spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.” Praying for one another was something the early church leaders took very seriously. When Christ-followers love each other well, it has a huge impact.

Most likely sooner rather than later someone is going to let you down, offend you, or hurt your feelings. I wish this was not the case, but I promise you the honeymoon will end. That is the bad news. However, there is some good news. The good news is the relationship does not have to end when the honeymoon does. In fact, our relationship with one another has the potential to become much better, stronger, and deeper after the honeymoon ends IF, (and this if a big IF), we learn to live out a very important “one another.” This one is mentioned by Paul in his letter to the family of God in Ephesus and Colossae. In Ephesians 4:32 we read these words, “Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.” In Colossians 3:13 Paul writes, “Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.”

In James 5:16 we read these words, “confess your sins to each other.” What’s your initial response? Me too. My initial response is, “Thanks, but no thanks, James.” That sounds like an awful and terrifying idea to me. Sure, I am fine confessing that I ate too much junk food or that I laughed at an inappropriate joke a comedian told, but the thought of you finding out about some of the stuff that is rolling around in my head, decisions I have made, things that I have said and done makes me break out in a cold sweat. Do any of you feel the same way? There is only one problem - The Holy Spirit, who inspired James to pen those words, is not good with that.

In Romans 15:14 and Colossians 3:16 Paul mentions another practical way for us to express love for one another. Paul instructs us to “coach one another up.” Ok, he doesn’t say it exactly like that, but that is the gist of what he is getting at when he tells us to “admonish one another.” The word in the original language that is translated admonish implies to instruct or correct. That is what great coaches do, right? They correct the bad habits of their players by teaching them how to do things the right way. This is exactly what we should be doing for one another.

The one another we are going to focus on today is mentioned by Paul in Romans 15:7. Paul writes, “Accept one another…” In a world filled with rejection, the body of Christ, corporately and individually as Christ followers receives a defining and all-important call that is found in Romans 15:7 “Accept one another…”.  This call is huge. Pain comes in a lot of different varieties, but of all the hurts one can experience rejection has to be one of the most unpleasant.

The “one another” we are going to focus on today is mentioned in Romans 12:5. In this text Paul tells us that when we were added to the church we became members of one another. 
Listen to the words of Paul in Romans 12:5, “so in Christ we who are many form one body, and each member belongs to all the others.” 

Our connection to one another, whether we feel it or not, is comparable to the way different parts of the body are connected to one another.  Don’t just brush this off as a cute metaphor.  Paul is speaking in a literal sense - we are literally members of the same body.  Each of us finds our meaning and function as a part of his body.

The “one another” we are going to focus on today is “encourage one another.”  1 Thessalonians 5:11, “Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.” Even the most resilient people need encouragement because life can be messy and downright hard. Some days are filled with disappointment, heartache, and frustration.  And just because you’re a follower of Jesus does not exempt you from any of the pain.  

Jesus, himself, was upfront with the reality that life is not always going to go our way. John 16:33, “…In this world you will have trouble.”  A little bit of trouble is often manageable, but even the most optimistic, faithful person can only withstand so much trouble before discouragement sets in.  Discouragement quickly leads to questions like, “What’s the point?” and even the questioning of one’s own self-worth.

Over fifty-nine times we read in the Owner’s Manual to either treat OR avoid treating one another in a very specific way. These passages are commonly referred to as the “one another” passages. 

For the next several weeks we’re going to spend time exploring the one another's in scripture. While all of the “one another” practices are important there is one that stands above the rest. In fact, it is so important that Jesus, John, Peter, and Paul command us to treat one another in this way. We find Jesus emphasizing this expectation to his disciples (family) in the hours prior to his arrest. 

John 13:34, “A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love another.”

These two parable are intended to be heard as calls to respond to Jesus and His mission. The moment we grasp the meaning buried in the parables of Jesus is the moment that we stop existing and start really living.
