UNITY

PSA 133:1  How good and pleasant it is when brothers live together in 
unity!

JOH 10:16  I have other sheep that are not of this sheep pen. I must bring 
them also. They too will listen to my voice, and there shall be one flock 
and one shepherd.

17:11  I will remain in the world no longer, but they are still in the 
world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, protect them by the power of 
your name--the name you gave me--so that they may be one as we are one.

21  that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in 
you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have 
sent me.

22  I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as 
we are one:

23  I in them and you in me. May they be brought to complete unity to let 
the world know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved 
me.

ROM 12:4  Just as each of us has one body with many members, and these 
members do not all have the same function,

5  so in Christ we who are many form one body, and each member belongs to 
all the others.

1CO 10:17  Because there is one loaf, we, who are many, are one body, for 
we all partake of the one loaf.

12:5  There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord.

12  The body is a unit, though it is made up of many parts; and though all 
its parts are many, they form one body. So it is with Christ.

13  For we were all baptized by one Spirit into one body--whether Jews or 
Greeks, slave or free--and we were all given the one Spirit to drink.

26  If one part suffers, every part suffers with it; if one part is 
honored, every part rejoices with it.

27  Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it.

GAL 3:26  You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus,

27  for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves 
with Christ.

28  There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for 
you are all one in Christ Jesus.

EPH 1:10  to be put into effect when the times will have reached their 
fulfillment--to bring all things in heaven and on earth together under one 
head, even Christ.

2:14  For he himself is our peace, who has made the two one and has 
destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility,

15  by abolishing in his flesh the law with its commandments and 
regulations. His purpose was to create in himself one new man out of the 
two, thus making peace,

16  and in this one body to reconcile both of them to God through the 
cross, by which he put to death their hostility.

17  He came and preached peace to you who were far away and peace to those 
who were near.

18  For through him we both have access to the Father by one Spirit.

19  Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and aliens, but fellow 
citizens with God's people and members of God's household,

21  In him the whole building is joined together and rises to become a holy 
temple in the Lord.

3:6  This mystery is that through the gospel the Gentiles are heirs 
together with Israel, members together of one body, and sharers together in 
the promise in Christ Jesus.

4:4  There is one body and one Spirit-- just as you were called to one hope 
when you were called--

5  one Lord, one faith, one baptism;

12  to prepare God's people for works of service, so that the body of 
Christ may be built up

13  until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son 
of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of 
Christ.

16  From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting 
ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.

25  Therefore each of you must put off falsehood and speak truthfully to 
his neighbor, for we are all members of one body.

COL 3:11  Here there is no Greek or Jew, circumcised or uncircumcised, 
barbarian, Scythian, slave or free, but Christ is all, and is in all.

15  Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one 
body you were called to peace. And be thankful.
