When Unity Comes
Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Dec 17, 2020 (message contributor)
Psalms 133:1 A Song of degrees of David. Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!
Ephesians 4:3 Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
Ephesians 4:13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:
When we finally get it we will be one. When we finally grow up in Christ we will not be church hoppers and whining about every little thing that does not meet our preferences or our perceived needs.
When we reread the mission statements and realize that it is not all about us we will rise up as a mighty force of God unified by the Spirit bonded together in peace to do what we were called to do. Then the darkness will flee. Then revival will come. Then we will understand and experience the true love of Christ, His Church and for the unbelievers.
If we keep doing what we are doing we shall never achieve our calling, the salvation of masses of souls as well as our country.
