Unity in the Body of Christ

“I, therefore, a prisoner for the Lord, urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.”

Ephesians 4:1-3

Perhaps you’ve heard the saying that goes: “Why can’t we just get along together.” These words seem so far from possible in a world that seems to thrive on hate. Perhaps if these words, which were spoken to the churches in Ephesus so many years ago, were taken seriously today, we would become a light (Matthew 5: 14-16) that others would see and be attracted to.
