Christ is what makes unity, without Christ there is no unity. Without seeing the indwelling Christ in all born again believers there is no unity. What makes all denominations fuss around so much and disagree? no unity. They see the rules or beliefs of a particular group but they don't see Jesus. You are accepted based on whether you believe what they exspouse. Christ by your union brings union, in other words when I see Jesus in me the union that has always exsisted since the new birth comes out and brings unity and the oneness of spirit to fruition. It becomes recognizable to others even though they make not recognize it as Christ as of yet. What happens is they see Christ life coming from your creation, Jesus expressed as you, your creation. Glory. That is what a Christian is; a person with Christ in them and as Christ comes out of you as you-Christianity comes to full fruition.
Coming into the understanding of Christ as life (Christ as life is a revealed understanding, Galatians 1:15-16) allows for the believer to see perfect unity and union with Christ in them now based on a birthing. It takes all grey areas of scripture for the believer and highlights them to see Jesus in the word of God because he is the word of God. Hallelujah! Finally the word of God takes on it's proper perspective for the believer. Now they see through everything to him, everything in the world you see through it to Christ, everything in the written word you see through it to Christ. You nolonger split hairs over what you believe you become unified, united by the one Christ in all believers no matter their understanding. It is not what you believe that makes a Christian, it's in whom you believe. Glory! That should make you shout a little.
You have looked through a glass darkly but now you see Jesus, you see what God has done, is doing, and his plan and purpose before the foundations of the world, Ephesians 1:4.
Unity set's the believers feet on solid Rock, the foundation the builder's rejected. The wisdom of God is found in his plan for all creation, the mystery of God is found in his plan before anything was created, you or I, no sin, no sickness, no fall in a garden, no cross, and no Lucifer. Before anything was created we were chosen to be in Christ, Ephesians 1:4.
You know what that means? It means when the time came to redeem humanity, every human being that believed on the Lord Jesus Christ would be saved by being placed in the one Christ. That is the plan and glory of God, read all chapter 1, it tells you everything you will need to know to get along in this world. Paul becomes the spokesman for all believers everywhere, he writes like no other, he received revelation like no other (at least not recorded), he said he had the message to the gentiles, the gospel he labeled "my gospel." Truly the Holyspirit uses all the word of God to move a believer on, when it is time for the deep understanding of Christ as life a believer will need Paul's gospel, a revelation of the indwelling Christ. ''Christ in you the hope of glory," is the gospel Paul preached, Galatians 1:11-12. Paul's gospel was a person "we preach Christ," and not a conglomerate of scriptures Mish mashed to make a statement.
Far from it, Paul was so direct in his wording and language, man cannot take him lightly, even Peter said Paul "was a hard man to understand." They had there run in's but agreed to preach what God had given them. Peter the circumcision gospel, and Paul the uncircumcision gospel. The truth is Paul was God's choice to usher in a new era, and the gospel to go with it. Not any different than what he did with Abraham or Moses, or any other that had a message for their age. Amen and Amen.
