As the prisoners of our Lord, we’re to live worthy lives- of the calling we’ve received. Therefore, we should strive to be humble, gentle, patient and loving- since we believe! We endeavor by our human effort to maintain a spiritual unity, through the holy bond of peace; we comprise the Body of Christ, enabled by the Spirit’s strength to fulfill our inward caprice of drawing souls to The Kingdom. We refuse to let the enemy divide us, either in purpose or focus; we’re drawn solely to one Hope- one Lord, one Faith and one baptism when we choose to honor Jesus. Author notes Inspired by: Eph 4:1-14; Prov 23:7 and "To keep the bond of peace through the unity of the Spirit glorifies God, but to allow indifferent spirits that brings bondage of pieces only glorifies Satan for his subtle work of dividing the Body of Christ which always pains God's heart. Essentials are the Gospel of salvation that is received by grace through faith, Divine Origin of Christ as God and His birth as Man, etc… Non-essentials are details of gifts, tradition, nationality, financial status, caste, color, creed, etc… Unity in the essentials, diversity in the non-essentials should always be our focus to keep ourselves in the bond of peace through the unity of the Spirit!" —Abraham Israel Learn more about me and my poetry at: http://amzn.to/1ffo9YZ By Joseph J.
