Waiting for World Unity
The desire for unity is not misguided, but, according to the Bible, it must be done for God’s glory resulting in the worship of His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ.
Today’s reading: 1 Corinthians 12:12-15:11
My selection:
For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ. For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—Jews or Greeks, slaves or free—and all were made to drink of one Spirit. For the body does not consist of one member but of many.
1 Corinthians 12:12-14
