Ephesians 4:1-6 “Not only (1) is their unity expressly stated as coming from the Spirit, but (2) four of the five graces listed in vv. 2–3 are among the fruit of the Spirit in Gal 5:22–23; and (3) in the Trinitarian confession that follows, pride of place is given to the Spirit, precisely because the one body, which is Paul's present concern, is the result of their common experience of the one Spirit, whose presence in their lives is also the predicate of their one hope.” - Gordon Fee “I do not ask for these only, but also for those who will believe in me through their word, that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me.” (Jn. 17:20&21) “Put away falsehood, let each one of you speak the truth with his neighbor, for we are members one of another. 26 Be angry and do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger, 27 and give no opportunity to the devil. 28 Let the thief no longer steal, but rather let him labor, doing honest work with his own hands, so that he may have something to share with anyone in need. 29 Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear. 30 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. 31 Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice. 32 Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.” (Ephesians 4:25-32) “We cannot expect the world to believe the Father sent the Son, that Jesus' claims are true, and that Christianity is true, unless the world sees some reality of the oneness of true Christians.” - Francis Schaffer, The Mark of the Christian “To the church of God that is in Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints together with all those who in every place call upon the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, both their Lord and ours:” (1 Cor. 1:2) “This is highly instructive. This mess of a church whose meetings did more harm than good is still a real, legitimate church. It is a church of God…This church is composed of "those sanctified in Christ Jesus." A saint is not a special kind of Christian, someone who has been through some sort of spiritual finishing school. A saint is another word for a Christian. In Christ we are sanctified in the sense of already having been set apart by God to be his people and needing to learn—bit by bit, day by day—how to live out what that actually means. Paul goes on to say that these Corinthian believers have been "called to be saints together with all those who in every place call upon the name of our Lord." Their own individual status in Christ connects each of them not only to the rest of their own church but even more widely to all who name the name of Jesus as they do. There is something unavoidably corporate involved in calling on Christ. He is the common Lord they all share—“both theirs and ours.” - Sam Allberry “The church is wholly constituted of those saints that are his jewels, that are the spoils of his enemies, that were once his enemies' possession, but that he has redeemed out of their hands.” - Jonathan Edwards “The Spirit delivers Christ to us not just anywhere and in any way but where and how he has promised. Although he is free to work outside of his covenanted mercies, we are assured of his saving blessings and presence only where he has been promised to us. If we identify the Spirit only with the unexpected and irregular, we will miss most of the times and places where he actually meets us.” —Michael Horton 4 There is one body and one Spirit—just as you were called to the one hope that belongs to your call— 5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6 one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all. 7 But grace was given to each one of us according to the measure of Christ's gift. (Eph. 4:4-6)

Am I growing as a Christian- To properly answer that question, there are some other questions we must answer first, but thankfully the Bible not only answers those, but gives us an outline concerning the process of growth.
In this episode, David Gornoski is joined by Connor Boyack, author of Tuttle Twins and the upcoming Christ vs. Caesar. What does "render unto Caesar" mean for the modern-day Christian? To answer this important question, Boyack takes us through a history of the Church's relationship with the State. Can we hide behind the anonymity of the voting booth and not be accountable for the State's violence? Listen to the full episode to find out, plus David comments on the news surrounding Miles Taylor, the New York Times "anonymous source," and more. Pre-order 'Christ vs Caesar' on Amazon.

Tom Holland demonstrates that history writes the best literature. Unfortunately many historians don't write for a popular audience. Tom began by wanting to write fiction but fell in love with history and hasn't turned back. Along the way he was grabbed by the beauty of Christianity and has been trying to figure out how it changed the world and is changing himself. He graciously gave me a couple of hours for a conversation.

Main Scripture passage: James 2:1-13 In James 2:1-13 the author asks his audience the following question: You profess the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, so in light of your claim to be followers of Christ, how do you treat other people? Do you really follow the teaching of Jesus, who said, "By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another" (John 13:35, NIV)? By stating this question James is really asking: If someone were to observe how you live in fact, would it be obvious that you were a Christian? To answer this question James says to use practical expressions of love as a gauge for measuring one's faith. Unfortunately, the people to whom James addressed his letter were not passing this test. Thus three things should be observed: (1) how James's readers failed the test of love (what they were doing wrong), (2) why partiality is a failure of love, and (3) James's exhortation to observe the law of love. Firstly, how were James's readers failing the test of love? James tells us in verses 1-4. His audience failed the test of love because they were showing partiality or respect of persons. This means they were showing favoritism or giving preference to someone without proper grounds. They were making judgements that were not based on truth or justice. Specifically, the rich were being honored while the poor were being dishonored. And although partiality can take many different forms, in all of them it is really based on self-interest. Therefore it is a failure of love. This leads us on to our next question: why is partiality a failure of love? First, partiality is a failure of love because it is based on a false judgement or a false evaluation (vv. 5-7). James's audience was treating people based on appearance; they were judging on externals rather than internals. They valued the rich because they looked good, smelled good, possessed money, and things of that nature. In response to this, James says that the poor are the ones who are truly rich--rich spiritually. There are of course other ways of making false judgements besides that of looking at the externals. We can also misjudge by evaluating something without all of the facts or by letting personal attachment influence our judgement. This is why James says in verse 4 that his audience had become "judges with evil thoughts." Their judgements were not based on truth, and therefore they were wrong. And although partiality is wrong because it is a misjudgment of the truth, in the case of James's audience it was also wrong because it was based on a misunderstanding of the law. His listeners most likely attempted to justify their partiality by stating that it was really just an expression of love and honor to those shown partiality. But this understanding is flawed because the royal law required them to love all, not just a few. So partiality is a failure to love because it is based on a misjudgment of the truth and a misunderstanding of the law. James's response to this failure consists in this: to observe the law of liberty, which is the law of love. He says, "So speak and so do as those who will be judged by the law of liberty. For judgement is without mercy to the one who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgement" (vv. 12-13). We will be judged by how we treat others, and this includes our judgements. If we judge other people and show partiality, God will judge us the same way. He commands us to fulfill the law of love, and He will judge us by the same. Therefore, "so speak and so do as those who will be judged by the law of liberty." Liberty Church
