Bible Question: Psalm 133 refers to brethren dwelling together in unity, does this mean that they associate with each other without conflict, or does it mean they actually are living together in the same dwelling -- or, can it mean all of the above? |
Bible Answer: Hi, Praise be to God! Christ called us to be one in Him, to love one another! This is how we can testefy and witness to the world that Christ is who He said He was! The problem with Christians is that we look for loopholes to allow us a dual existence with God and society: Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. Let us not become conceited, provoking and envying each other. (Galatians 5:25-26) to slander no one, to be peaceable and considerate, and to show true humility toward all men. At one time we too were foolish, disobedient, deceived and enslaved by all kinds of passions and pleasures. We lived in malice and envy, being hated and hating one another. But when the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared, he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit, whom he poured out on us generously through Jesus Christ our Savior, so that, having been justified by his grace, we might become heirs having the hope of eternal life. This is a trustworthy saying. And I want you to stress these things, so that those who have trusted in God may be careful to devote themselves to doing what is good. These things are excellent and profitable for everyone. (Titus 3:2-8) We are called to renovate ourselves and to humbly serve Jesus as we serve each other! God Bless! Angel |
