Synopsis
Scripture: John 10:11-13, 1 Corinthians 1:10-13, John 17:20-23, Ephesians 4:1-6 Speaker: Scott Meyer Summary: Scott's message emphasizes that unity in the church is essential for fulfilling God’s purpose and requires believers to live in harmony, love, and humility. He draws from Ephesians 4 to stress the importance of maintaining the unity of the Spirit through peace, acknowledging the one body and one Spirit that binds all believers. Unity is portrayed not as uniformity, but as a shared commitment to Christ and His mission, allowing for diversity within the body. From scripture he points to the warning that division and disunity hinder the church’s witness and effectiveness, and urges members to guard against pride, selfishness, and gossip. Ultimately, this message calls the church to reflect the unity of the Trinity and be a powerful testimony of God’s love to the world.
