My Top Reasons for Pursuing Biblical Unity

Here are my top reasons for pursuing biblical unity in all that I believe and live in my Christian life: (in no particular order)

  1. I am a child of a triune, fully unified God
  2. I love Jesus Christ and His Good News
  3. I love the church, the universal, catholic church
  4. I love the Holy Spirit
  5. Jesus' prayer in John 17 - His glory and fame is on the line!
  6. I love people
  7. I love the mission to make disciples
  8. I love my wife
  9. I love my daughter
  10. I love theology
  11. I love the Word
  12. Sin is real, dangerous and hopeless
  13. I love creation
  14. I hate the Fall and all of its effects and fruit
  15. Division in the Church is real, unfruitful and counterproductive
  16. Infighting prevents outreach
  17. "Unity" today has been lost in translation, especially in Christian circles
  18. Time must be redeemed because the days are still evil
  19. Jesus is coming back soon!
  20. I'm still breathing...

I list these primarily to be stated, not debated.
