The Fellowship (Australia) - Characteristics

Characteristics

The Fellowship is strongly opposed to Freemasonry. A theory of "generational curses" is taught, which encourages repentance if a member's ancestors were Freemasons.

The Fellowship emphasizes the importance of what it calls "walking in the light", referencing 1 John 1:7. In the context of The Fellowship, "walking in the light" means the public confession of sin to one another and demands complete transparency. The doctrine argues that God's forgiveness depends upon such public confession of sin.

Stuart Piggin suggests that they combine "remnant" and "revival" mentalities, and that occasional visitors to their meetings "have been impressed by the Christian calibre of those who attended and could not fault the Scriptural teaching."
