LIVE WITH PURPOSE—MAINTAINING A DIVINE ONENESS

Ephesians 4:4-6 encourages us to think deeply about unity within the church. It speaks of one body, one faith, and one Father—true Christian unity is a divine work. But what does this mean in practical terms?

Church unity is a divine work because she is “one body,” animated by “one Spirit,” guaranteed by “one hope,” saved by “one Lord,” guided by “one faith,” testifying through “one baptism,” and glorifying “one God and Father.” Every Christian is called to be “eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.” Every Christian is called to LIVE WITH PURPOSE—MAINTAINING A DIVINE ONENESS.
