Unity

I appeal to you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree together, so that there may be no divisions among you and that you may be united in mind and conviction.

Finally, all of you, be like-minded and sympathetic, love as brothers, be tenderhearted and humble.

A song of ascents. Of David. Behold, how good and pleasant it is when brothers live together in harmony!

Finally, brothers, rejoice! Aim for perfect harmony, encourage one another, be of one mind, live in peace. And the God of love and peace will be with you.

…and with diligence to preserve the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.

Just as each of us has one body with many members, and not all members have the same function,

…so in Christ we who are many are one body, and each member belongs to one another.

…so that with one mind and one voice you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but associate with the lowly. Do not be conceited.

Nevertheless, conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ. Then, whether I come and see you or only hear about you in my absence, I will know that you stand firm in one spirit, contending together as one for the faith of the gospel,

Now may the God who gives endurance and encouragement grant you harmony with one another in Christ Jesus,
