Sermon: Eager to Maintain the Unity of the Spirit

Eager to Maintain the Unity of the Spirit (Ephesians 4:1-7) Pastor Nathan Currey July 8, 2018 ----more---- God creates unity in his church by the gospel of grace and he calls us to eagerly maintain unity by that same grace. I. Consider Your Calling (1) II. Walking Worthy (2-3) III. 'Ones' of Oneness (4-6) IV. Grace Given (7) Ephesians 4:1–7 4:1 I therefore, a prisoner for the Lord, urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called, 2 with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, 3 eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. 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.
