Holy Tuesday: Identifying with Christ’s Love & the Unity of the Saints

ThemeChrist desires deep, sacrificial love and unity within His body. This day focuses on love as the foundation of community. Love is distinct from compassion as it is a desire to draw close to another in unity.ScripturesJohn 13:34-35 –"A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another."Ephesians 4:1-3 –"Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace."1 John 4:7-8 –"Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God."John 15:4-5 –"Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine."
