Unity Through Identity - Part Two

By comparing the account of King Saul and King David in the Old
Testament with the realities of the early church in the New
Testament, we can begin to understand the universal message of
unity intended by God for His people, as communicated in
Scripture. However, the only way the many perceived
incompatibilities that come between us all can be overcome lies
in recognizing and living out our shared identity as brothers and
sisters in Christ. Only as we know and live out our common
identity can we become enablers of unity rather than destroyers
of it. Key texts include 1 Samuel 23:1-14, Ephesians 4:1-6, 1
Peter 3:8, and Galatians 3:26-28.
