The visible Church of Christ is an expression of the spiritual fellowship resulting from faith in Christ. In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.

There can be no true church witho'ut this spiritual life in its members; and where there is 'spiritual life there is unity. Unity because they are all led by one spirit, and all baptized by one spirit into one body. Ye also as lively stones are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.

We have the same expressions of unity in the lan guage of the Apostle when he writes of what must char acterize those who would partake of the Lord's Supper: For we being many are one bread and one body; for we are all partakers of that one bread. Here we have an unmistakable evidence of the power of Christ's death, which will ever unite the people of God into one body, who are spiritually of the same mind and judgment.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the concept of Christian unity, arguing that the true Church of Christ must be a single, undivided body. The author contends that the numerous denominations and divisions within Christianity directly contradict the teachings of Jesus and the apostles. Rooted in historical and biblical context, the book examines the concept of the Church as envisioned by early Christians, drawing parallels with the Old Testament temple and its unified structure and rituals. The author explores the transformative power of Christ's teachings, emphasizing the importance of love, forgiveness, and non-resistance as cornerstones of a unified Christian community. This book challenges the notion of denominationalism and calls for a return to the original principles of Christian unity. The author's insights offer a compelling perspective on the divisions within the Christian faith, urging readers to consider the profound implications of Christ's message for achieving true unity and fellowship.
