“He that is of God heareth God’s words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.” John 8:47

As we are going to see, when God speaks of “unity” in His Word, and His desire for it, it’s always going to be speaking of unity, cohesiveness in the context of, based on HIS written Word. Anyone who does not uphold His written Word isn’t even His and so true disciple of Jesus have no unity with those antichrist counterfeits! Boom Jesus. Memorize Christ’s words on record in John 8:47.

“Whoso despiseth the word shall be destroyed: but he that feareth the commandment (Word) shall be rewarded.” Proverbs 13:13

The moment any person ceases to not uphold God’s written Word as final divine authority is the moment they are not to be unified with! Putting the Word away from yourself, rejecting it, means you are rejecting eternal life! (Acts 13:46)

UNITY AMONG CHRIST’S TRUE SAINTS IS FOUNDED UPON, IS GROUNDED UPON THEIR ACKNOWLEDGING, ARDENTLY ADHERING TO, AND BEING ESTABLISHED ON THE FINAL DIVINE AUTHORITY OF HIS WORD (Psalms 89:34; 119; Mark 13:31; John 10:35; Romans 3:4; 2 Peter 1:16-21; etc.).

ANY person talking about being “led by the Spirit” and yet is not anchored in the written Word, is a dangerous flake. Beware. See Psalms 119:105; 2 Timothy 3:16-17.

The primary way God leads His New Testament saints is via His written Word.

Working Diligently to Keep It

“Endeavoring (working hard) to keep the unity of the spirit in the bond of peace.” Ephesians 4:3

UNITY AMONG HIS people is important to Christ AND it’s important to ALL who truly know Him. Period!

There are times when people who are in the body of Christ disagree, and they might have to agree to disagree in the end, but they should talk to one another, person-to-person and seek to work through any strife or dissension. Jesus told us “Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother.” (Matt. 18:15) We should talk things out, which should always be done in the spirit of the love of Christ and with a humble, teachable heart, realizing we are all very imperfect and in desperate need of God’s forgiveness and workings in our hearts. Proverbs 25:9 says “Debate thy cause with thy neighbour himself; and discover not a secret to another.” Paul and Barnabas disagreed sharply and even parted ways, but not with hatred or strife in their hearts (Acts 15:37-39). They agreed to disagree, yet remained in the love of Christ. The true remnant believer must not allow strife, bitterness or anything short of the love of God into his heart, and sometimes this must be made a matter of prayer when there is a struggle within to maintain the love of God. Remember Ephesians 4:3 which says we are to endeavor or work hard to maintain the unity of the spirit in the bond of peace. Jude 21 says “Keep yourselves in the love of God.” Hell awaits all who die outside of the love of God – “Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.” (1 John 4:7-8)

“And be at peace among yourselves…See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men.” 1 Thessalonians 5:13, 15

May God bless us to afford to others the same grace we personally need in working out our own salvation with fear and trembling before our God (Philippians 2:12-13).

“Love the brotherhood.” 1 Peter 2:17

Also, please consider these verses:

1 Corinthians 13:1-8 (a great chapter to read daily)

Ps 133:1 “Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!”

Unity among true disciples of Jesus is on the basis of His Word of truth, never at the expense of it (Psalms 11:3; Matthew 7:24-29).

“Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.” Matthew 10:34

The ecumenical cry, goal, via all these heretical movies and revivals, is a plan to deceive – to keep captive souls in religious babylon where the LORD has commanded us to “Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.” (Revelation 18:4-5). This is the cry for “unity” and yet truth is never mentioned. How does Holy Scripture address this?

False prophets speak about love and unity – yet it’s never verbalized by them that the only unity the body of Christ has is with those who rest and live out and hold to the final divine authority of God’s written Word. All other unity is false, fleshly unity. True servants of the LORD speak about Jesus Christ and His redemption, the blood of Jesus, holiness, the cross, judgment, sin, repentance, being ready for the return of Christ, and truth. Beware.

“The elder unto the wellbeloved Gaius, whom I love in the TRUTH. 2 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. 3 For I rejoiced greatly, when the brethren came and testified of the TRUTH that is in thee, even as thou walkest in the TRUTH. 4 I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in TRUTH.” 3 John 1-4

In His prayer to the Father, Jesus makes it clear that His Word, the exclusive island of His truth, is where His saints are sanctified – where they are set apart as His special, only bride. All others are outside of His kingdom.

“Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.” John 17:17

The primary way God leads His New Testament body is by His written Word. His true disciples have no unity with those who are not born again AND presently abiding, walking by and in the record of Holy Scripture (Psalms 119:105; John 10:35; 2 Timothy 3:15-17; 2 Peter 1:12-21, etc.).

Memorizing these 2 Bible verses in Ephesians 4 is a life changer!!! Jesus is coming.

Ephesians 4:3 and 4:32!

It’s easy to be kind to others as we begin to realize just how kind, how merciful our God has been to us through Christ.

“And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.” Ephesians 4:32
