Today’s Thought “UNITY” G. Ward

Ephesians 4:1 Therefore I, the prisoner of the Lord, urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling with which you have been called, ² with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, ³ being diligent to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. ⁴ There is one body and one Spirit, just as you also were called in one hope of your calling; ⁵ one Lord, one faith, one baptism, ⁶ one God and Father of all who is over all and through all and in all.

The song that states, “when we all get to Heaven, what a day of rejoicing that will be” greatly signifies that until then, a preparation given us, cannot thwart sufferings (John 16:33). Our role as believers shouldn’t perpetuate notions that divisiveness is acceptable either (*Ro.16:17), even that to which seeks to substantiate moral fortitude through boasting of a political affiliation appearing more righteous than a lesser side; for Jesus, our Exemplar Leader – gave taxes to Caesar, along with compliance unto his laws, but absolutely/preeminently observed HIS Father’s reign and rule. I’m always perplexed on the unholy attempt to proclaim righteousness on a few things achieved from any (*Ro.3:10,23), to then forget the many failures of the flesh, entirely unbecoming of the Spirit realm(?).
