WHY unity? Cf. Eph 4:2-6; 1 Co 12:28. The talent that God gives to us is the
complementary with each other.
WHEN do we have the unity?
WHAT does 'UNITY' stand for?
Undivided – Unity is the reason for the fall of the wall of Jericho
Understanding – The question is "Am I my brothers' and sisters' keeper?"
Useful.
Nationhood - We're all citizens in the Kingdom of God.
Networking - It's important to network with one another. Christian networking must be with kingdom mentality.
Integrity – How to get integrity if we don't respect each other?
Identify – with one another.
Imitators of God (Eph 5:1) – Imitating God will generate integrity
Intercede – with one another.
Trust – one another
Trustworthy – The Question is "Are we not trustworthy enough for God?" Remember God entrusted the talents
Teamwork.
Transparent with one another – It certainly we expose everything then it will be very unwise. It is about whatever we do, do it or say it for the glory of God. Mean what we say.
Tolerance.
Teachable heart.
Tenderhearted – Compassion for one another and other people.
Thankful – We're often under uneasy circumstances and that's why we complain. Be thankful for everything.
Thirsty – for God's Word & Holy Spirit
Transformed – Action speaks louder than words. 1 John 3:18 "Let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth."
Testimony – Our lives must be a good testimony to the Lord.
Yielding.
Yearning.
How do we have unity?
We are in the triangle of love. It's not sufficient to only
love God we need to also love one another but then we cannot love one another if we don't love God.
