Summary:
Paul closes the letter with a blessing over the entire church, invoking the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, and asking that these be with them all.
Teaching:
Today, verse 13 has a threefold structure: grace, love, and fellowship. It expresses the characteristics of the Triune God well.
“The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ” means the grace of the cross, and grace is simply a gift that is given freely. And this grace begins with the love of God the Father.
The fellowship of the Holy Spirit is not visible, but the Holy Spirit comes into us and builds the house of God. That is, it means having fellowship with the Holy Spirit.
Verse 13 is an important verse that shows the character of worship, and this worship is an event of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit - an event that we must experience.
