Ephesians 4:1
"Walk worthy of the vocation"
"Werewith ye are called"
We have been called to one body; therefore as we seek to walk in unity, we are walking worthy of the calling (vocation) we have from God. We do not live for Christ to get something; we live for Christ because He has already done so much for us! Paul is not telling us to make unity, but to maintain the unity already existing in the body The grounds for this unity are listed in verse 4-6; note that the central point in the list is "ONE LORD." Though there is "one body" this does not do away with the importance of the local bodies of believers. You will notice that we are dealing here with spiritual truths relating to the whole program of God.
All Christians have a part of this "UNITY" : The Pastor and Teacher to feed the saints the word of God and set the example for service. The saints in turn perform the work of the ministry; and as each saint grows and wins others, the entire Body grows in Christ. Each saint shares in the growth of the Church. Unfortunately, there are some Christians who are still babies who are unstable and easily led astray. Satan and his minister's are waiting to tear down the church with their lies. If we belong to the truth, how can we indulge in lies? Satan is the father of lies, his spirits tells lies and one day the whole world will believe......
