Woody Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 Quote: The church is one body with many members, called fromevery nation, kindred, tongue, and people. In Christ we are a new creation; distinctions of race, culture, learning, and nationality, and differences between high and low, rich and poor, male and female, must not be divisive among us. We are all equal in Christ, who by one Spirit has bonded us into one fellowship with Him and with one another; we are to serve and be served without partiality or reservation. Through the revelation of Jesus Christ in the Scriptures we share the same faith and hope, and reach out in one witness to all. This unity has its source in the oneness of the triune God, who has adopted us as His children. (Rom. 12:4, 5; 1 Cor. 12:12- 14; Matt. 28:19, 20; Ps. 133:l; 2 Cor. 5:16, 17; Acts 17:26, 27; Gal. 3:27, 29; Col. 3:10-15; Eph.4:14-16; 4:1-6; John 17:20-23.) This belief would seem to be central to the Gospel. Yet some would seek to destroy this. We must protect this belief so that all will have access to the Gospel and to our church. Quote May we be one so that the world may be won. Christian from the cradle to the grave I believe in Hematology. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
