Behold,
how good
and how pleasant it
is for brethren
to dwell together
in unity!
And other sheep
I have,
which are not
of this fold:
them also
I must bring,
and
they shall hear
my voice;
and there shall be
one fold,
and one shepherd.
And now
I am no more
in the world,
but these
are in the world,
and I come
to thee.
Holy Father,
keep through thine
own
name those whom
thou hast given me,
that they
may be one,
as we are.
That they
all may be one;
as thou,
Father,
art in me,
and I in thee,
that they
also may be
one in us:
that the world
may believe that
thou hast sent me.
And the glory which
thou gavest me
I have given them;
that they
may be one,
even as
we are one:
I in them,
and
thou in me,
that
they may be made
perfect in one;
and
that the world
may know that
thou hast sent me,
and hast loved them,
as thou
hast loved me.
For as we
have many members
in one body,
and all members
have not
the same office:
So we,
being many,
are one body
in Christ,
and every one members one
of another.
For we
being
many are one bread,
and one body:
for we
are all partakers
of that one bread.
And there are differences
of administrations,
but the same Lord.
For as the body
is one,
and hath
many members,
and all
the members
of that one body,
being many,
are one body:
so also is Christ.
For by one Spirit
are
we all baptized
into one body,
whether we
be Jews
or Gentiles,
whether we
be bond or free;
and have been all made
to drink
into one Spirit.
And
whether one member suffer,
all the members
suffer
with it;
or one member
be honoured,
all the members
rejoice
with it.
Now
ye are the body
of Christ,
and members
in particular.
For ye are all
the children
of God
by faith
in Christ Jesus.
For as many
of you as
have been baptized
into Christ
have put on
Christ.
There is
neither Jew
nor Greek,
there is
neither bond
nor free,
there is neither male
nor female:
for ye
are all one
in Christ Jesus.
That in the dispensation
of the fulness
of times
he might gather together
in one all things
in Christ,
both which
are in heaven,
and which
are on earth;
even in him:
For he
is our peace,
who hath made
both one,
and hath broken down
the middle wall
of partition
between us;
Having abolished
in his flesh the enmity,
even
the law
of commandments
contained
in ordinances;
for to make
in himself
of twain one new man,
so making peace;
And
that he
might reconcile both
unto God
in one body
by the cross,
having slain
the enmity thereby:
And came
and preached
peace to you
which were afar off,
and to them
that were nigh.
For through him we both
have
access
by one Spirit
unto the Father.
Now therefore
ye are
no more strangers
and foreigners,
but fellowcitizens
with the saints,
and of the household
of God;
In whom all
the building
fitly framed
together groweth unto an holy temple
in the Lord:
That the Gentiles
should be
fellowheirs,
and
of the same body,
and partakers
of his promise
in Christ
by the gospel:
There is one body,
and one Spirit,
even as
ye are called in one hope
of your calling;
One Lord,
one faith,
one baptism,
For the perfecting
of the saints,
for the work
of the ministry,
for the edifying
of the body
of Christ:
Till we all come in
the unity
of the faith,
and
of the knowledge
of the Son
of God,
unto a perfect man,
unto the measure
of the stature
of the fulness
of Christ:
From whom
the whole body
fitly joined
together and compacted
by that
which every joint supplieth,
according to
the effectual working
in the measure
of every part,
maketh
increase
of the body
unto the edifying
of itself
in love.
Wherefore putting
away lying,
speak every man truth
with his neighbour:
for we
are members one
of another.
Where there is
neither Greek
nor Jew,
circumcision
nor uncircumcision,
Barbarian, Scythian,
bond nor free:
but Christ
is all,
and in all.
And let
the peace of God
rule
in your hearts,
to the which
also ye
are called in
one body;
and be
ye thankful.
