John 17:21 New Living Translation
21 I pray that they will all be one, just as you and I are one—as you are in me, Father, and I am in you…
John 17:20-21 New Living Translation
20 “I am praying not only for these disciples but also for all who will ever believe in me through their message. 21 I pray that they will all be one, just as you and I are one—as you are in me, Father, and I
am in you…
Principle: Unity and Community is a DIVINE concept.
John 17:21 New Living Translation
21 I pray that they will all be one, just as you and I are one—as you are in me, Father, and I am in you. And may they be in us so that the world will believe you sent me.
Principle: An outflow of us having community is that Christ is represented and believed in.
Principle: The Community of Christ points back to Christ!
Matthew 16:18 New Living Translation
18 Now I say to you that you are Peter (which means ‘rock’), and upon this rock I will build my church (community), and all the powers of hell will not conquer it.
Matthew 13:24-25 New Living Translation
24 …“The Kingdom of Heaven is like a farmer who planted good seed in his field. 25 But that night as the workers slept, his enemy came and planted weeds among the wheat, then slipped away.
Principle: The enemy wins we fight each other.
Principle: You cannot live in community without forgiveness.
Ephesians 4:31-32 New Living Translation
31 Get rid of all bitterness, rage, anger, harsh words, and slander, as well as all types of evil behavior. 32 Instead, be kind to each other, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God through Christ has forgiven you.
Proverbs 16:18 New Living Translation
18 Pride goes before destruction, and haughtiness before a fall.
Principle: Pride excludes. Selfishness leaves out.
Principle: Christianity was never meant to be done alone.
Principle: We not only need Jesus, we need Community.
