One and Same

“We are all one body, we have the same Spirit, and we have all been called to the same glorious future. There is only one Lord, one faith, one baptism, and there is only one God and Father, who is over us all and in us all and living through us all.” Ephesians 4:4-6

There are several key words in this passage I believe we need to pay close attention to.

One and Same

We are ALL “ONE” body-The Church

We have the “SAME” Spirit-The Holy Spirit

We have ALL been called to the “SAME” glorious future-Heaven

There is only “ONE” Lord-Jesus Christ

“ONE” faith-Our faith and trust in Christ

“ONE” baptism-The same baptism and emersion as Jesus

“ONE” God and Father-He is the Creator, Inventor, Ruler, and over ALL

We as the Body of Christ are ONE and the SAME in Christ Jesus.

Are we living and working as ONE and the SAME?

Do we believe we are ONE and the SAME?

Do others outside of the Body of Christ, see the Body working together functioning as ONE and the SAME and want to be a part of it?

Jesus in You and through You we are ONE. Help us as the Body to live and do as though we are ONE and the SAME in You. Unite us to be stronger and to function as a ONE. Amen
