HOW IS UNITY ACCOMPLISHED

[DougE]

[Ephesians 4:3 KJV] "Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace."
[Ephesians 4:4 KJV] "[There is] one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;"
[Ephesians 4:5 KJV] "One Lord, one faith, one baptism,"

Unity comes by acknowledging there is one body. There was the church in Jerusalem headed by Peter and the apostles. This was not the body of Christ. This church diminished. Jesus formed a new church, which was revealed thru Paul. Paul was the apostle and Jesus the head. The believers, both Jew and Gentile, are reconciled to God and are made members of Christ's body.

Unity comes by acknowledging there is one Spirit through whom we have access to the Father. We are to walk in the Spirit.

Unity comes by acknowledging that there is one Lord in three persons, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost

Unity comes by acknowledging there is one faith, the faith of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Unity comes by acknowledging there is one baptism, which is the baptism by the Spirit, not water.

Unity is not accomplished by compromising truth
