7 reasons why we should be seen as one body

1. Jesus prayed "that they may be one"
2. We are members of his body. It should be the most co-ordinated body in the universe
3. This being one body is what it will take for non-Christians to recognize that we really belong to Christ
4. It seems that one of the highest priorities for Christians is to love one another. We are told,
   let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth. If this happens, we will be a brilliant light to the world
5. We have the Spirit of God. Therefore we should be eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
6. We will be happier and healthier all around if we promote one another's well being in a maximum way
7. Being united here on earth is good practice for eternity

Of course, we need to arrive at the difficulties which have kept Christians from really being one. Everything in its time. But how about if you aim at loving someone today.
