John 17:21-"That they all be one, as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be in us; That the world may believe that thou hast sent me:
Here we have Jesus revealed as the great intercessor. Here he is praying that we all be united. The standard of this unity is the oneness, the same oneness as between Jesus and the Father.We as true believers must come together as one.This is an absolute for the spreading of the Gospel. There is a world that has not been reached; millions are walking in darkness, because we believers have not unified enough to penetrate the world with the truth of the Gospel.The problem is not God, He hasn't changed and He never fails, so we must look at the called of God and our lack of duty.
See there are three essentials for men to become believers; First there is the messenger, the person who proclaims the word so that man can believe.Then there must be a message which to proclaim, and since we are Gods messengers, the message we take into the world must be the testimony of God's revelation to mankind. We who confess Jesus Christ as Lord must lay aside our petty difference, and lift up the one thing that we all have in common. Let us come together as one and proclaim Jesus Christ and Him crucified. We the many members of this one glorious body coming together proclaim a single message. Come together as one as Christ and the Father are one. One body proclaiming Gods only message to a dying world, Christ and him crucified. A body of one, unified that world may know that God sent Jesus into the world, and that through him the world might be saved.
The world needs a unified love more than anything else, it needs to see a great demonstration of love from a massive multitude of people.Think of the power the world would see if all believers came together in a united love sharing the good news of the gospel. So let us who confess the name of Jesus, become one with Jesus, one with his Love and message, that all in darkness might come to know his marvelous light.
