Paul's words to the church in Ephesus:
I therefore, the prisoner in the Lord, beg you to lead a life worthy of the calling to which you have been called, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, making every effort to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to the 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 all.
One of the greatest frustrations in my life as a Christian, let alone as a pastor, is division and divisiveness in the body of Christ. And so I need to remember (maybe you do too) that there IS one body, whether we act like it or not. There IS one Spirit, whether we pray together or not. There IS one God and Father of all.
In Christ,
Pastor Seth
