Unity

The Bible teaches the importance of unity.  Unity with others is good and pleasant (Psalm 133:1).  Because the church is the “body of Christ” (1 Corinthians 12:27), unity is essential and it is hard for a body to be in conflict with itself.  Jesus’ plan for His church is people unified in the faith.  So how do you start to be in unity?  A key verse that tells us how is Philippians 2:3: “Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves.”
