"There is one body and one Spirit," Ephesians 4:4.
And one hope. And one Lord. One faith. One baptism. One God. One. One. One. One. One. One. One. Who created this body? Who created this collect of all peoples? That is, Who made this congregation? God. God did, the Father. Of all. Who is. Over all. Through all. In all. And. And He created the church inherently one. The congregation did not create itself. Nor its own unity. God declared the church of Christ one. Every man, every woman throughout the world, throughout time, who has come to the faith of Christ obedient to God's call is become one with all the rest.
We visit with any brother or sister today recognizing each other parts of the body of Christ. And, together, we give thanks to God for making us all friends again in Christ.
