Biblical Unity is God’s will for the Church. It is God’s will for churches in a city to have true unity. It is God’s will for Christians in a nation to have united bond of unity. In the future the church will have the unity of the Godhead, in the future the church will have the unity of the Spirit, and in the future the church will have the unity of the faith.
Nevertheless, we will come through trying times of unity, as we have been in past times. These times are to create an opening for a holy desire for biblical unity to be planted in our hearts.
I believe that we will again enter into one of the most trying times of unity in the history of the church, this has to happen in order to make the way for the unity that Christ wants in His body.
You must see the purposes why God allows strife and divisions to arise in the church; you must see why these trying times come. One way is to make room for the house that the Lord will build in the soon future.
You can even see in your own churches and companies how unity is tested again and again. In times when unity is tested you can see the hearts of the leaders and the people. After those times of testing there need to be restoration and healing, which comes through love, forgiveness, understanding and truth.
We must pray for wisdom and learn how to overcome these tests of unity and trying times of unity in order to have a better and more rich unity in the church.
