Walk in Unity

Ephesians 4:1-6 ‘I, therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you to walk worthy of the calling with which you were called, with all lowliness and gentleness, with longsuffering, bearing with one another in love, endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called in one hope of your calling; one Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.’

‘and the two shall become one flesh’; so then they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate.”’ Mark 10:8-9

‘Though one may be overpowered by another, two can withstand him. And a threefold cord is not quickly broken.’ Ecclesiastes 4:12 NKJV

UNIFORMS IDENTIFY A TEAM BUT UNITY IDENTIFIES THE MISSION

God never intended everyone to be identical. He intended everyone to be UNITED

Unity isn’t something you CREATE. It is SOMETHING YOU PROTECT

Grow into Spiritual Maturity

Ephesians 4:11-16 11And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, 12for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, 13till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ; 14that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting, 15but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head—Christ

mature believers are no longer tossed around by every wind of doctrine

Knowledge fills the mind but TRUTH transforms the heart.

Growth is automatic.

MATURITY is intentional.

Clothe yourself in righteousness

Ephesians 4:17-32 that you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts, 23and be renewed in the spirit of your mind,  25Therefore, putting away lying, “Let each one of you speak truth with his neighbor,” for we are members of one another. 26“Be angry, and do not sin”: do not let the sun go down on your wrath, 27nor give place to the devil.  28Let him who stole steal no longer, but rather let him labor, working with his hands what is good, that he may have something to give him who has need.  29Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers. 30And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. 31Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice. 32And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you.

Salvation isn’t simply adding Jesus to your old life. It’s exchanging your old life for His new one.

The greatest miracle isn’t merely that Jesus raises dead people. It’s that He changes living people.
