The Phaneroo Devotion: The Message Of Grace, The Foundation Of Unity
Apostle Grace Lubega
Ephesians 4:13 (KJV): “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 fullness of Christ.”
—
God has called the body of Christ to walk in the unity of the faith.
It is important to understand that you cannot truly unify people who are divided in doctrine. They may live at peace with one another and even tolerate each other, but they can never be one.
True unity can only exist where believers share the same understanding of truth, and that truth is revealed in the message of God’s grace.
Why is the gospel of grace the only message capable of producing genuine unity among believers?
It is because grace teaches us to love unconditionally. When grace rules the heart, it becomes impossible to hate, envy, or divide.
That is why the Church must return to the message of grace, for only grace has the power to tear down the walls of division and enable us to see one another through the finished work of Christ at the cross. Hallelujah!

GOLDEN NUGGET: True unity can only exist where believers share the same understanding of truth, and that truth is revealed in the message of God’s grace.
PRAYER: Loving Father, I thank You for the revelation of Your grace. Thank You for teaching me to love as You love and to forgive as You forgive. As instructed by the scriptures, I pursue peace with all men but also regard them through the lens of what You finished through Your cross. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
