{"Unity"}
WE have ALL EXPERIENCED the SENSE of RIGHTNESS and PLEASURE THAT RESULTS from GETTING ALONG WITH OTHERS - AS WELL AS the ANXIETY and FRICTION that KNOTS UP OUR STOMACHS WHEN WE'RE at ODDS WITH OTHERS.
NOT ONLY DO WE ENJOY PEACE OF MIND WHEN WE LIVE in HARMONY WITH FELLOW BELIEVERS,
BUT WE ALSO MAKE a STATEMENT to the WORLD AROUND US.
JESUS'
NEW COMMANDMENT is that WE LOVE ONE ANOTHER AS HE HAS LOVED US,
SO THAT EVERYONE WHO OBSERVES OUR LOVING INTERACTION with EACH OTHER WILL THAT WE BELONG TO JESUS CHRIST.
WE WILL NOT ALWAYS AGREE WITH EACH OTHER ON EVERYTHING,
BUT WE ARE EXHORTED BY JESUS and the APOSTLES TO
"MAKE EVERY EFFORT TO KEEP THE UNITY of the SPIRIT THROUGH the BOND OF PEACE".
WE MAY HAVE OUR DIFFERENCES,
BUT OUR COMMON PURPOSE and DESTINY UNITES OUR HEARTS.
{Eph 4:4-6; Php 2:2}
{Ps 133:1; Jn 13:34-35}
