Unity...it is a command!


1 Corinthians 1:10

Now I plead with you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

Personal Challenge

Both Jesus and Paul iterated multiple times that we are to strive for unity in the body of Christ. If we were to do this on all accounts then the church would be so different than the rest of the world that we would not be able to have enough buildings to contain all that would want to join us. On the contrary, we have perfected division and disunity to the point that we accuse other believers of not being Christians over very petty differences. The enemy has sucked us into his net of discord. It is our responsibility, and therefore also my responsibility, to sow seeds of love and unity so that the body of Christ may be healed and reunited. Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, the sinner!
