Fellowship: Sharing Spiritual Things
Definition – Two /are/ better than one, Because they have a good reward for their labor.
For if they fall, one will lift up his companion.
But woe to him /who is/ alone when he falls, For /he has/ no one to help him up.
Again, if two lie down together, they will keep warm; But how can one be warm /alone?/
Though one may be overpowered by another, two can withstand him.
And a threefold cord is not quickly broken.
Better a poor and wise youth Than an old and foolish king who will be admonished no more.
(Ecclesiastes 4:9-13 NKJV
