 \u201cIT IS YOUR JOB TO PROTECT THE UNITY OF YOUR CHURCH.\u201d  <\/strong>Unity in the church is so important that the New Testament gives more attention to it than to either heaven or hell. God deeply desires that we experience oneness and harmony with each other. Unity is the soul of fellowship. Destroy it, and you rip the heart out of Christ\u2019s Body. It is the essence, the core, of how God intends for us to experience life together in his church. Our supreme model for unity is the Trinity. The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are completely unified as one. God is the highest example of sacrificial love, humble other-centeredness, and perfect harmony.\u201d
