[1 Peter 3:8-9] Brotherhood-be a brother/like a brother (Philadelphia-brotherly love) Fervently loving one another from the heart is one of the reasons for your soul’s purification (1 Pet 1:22). Within the body of Christ, titles like "father" and "teacher" are forbidden by Jesus because we are all brothers. Even elders are first brothers, and we have one father and one teacher. Our common adoption and fatherhood makes us all brethren. You "plug in" to our church body by getting to know one another and fervently loving one another from the heart.
