Unity in Christ: Walking Worthy of the Calling

In Ephesians 4:1-6, the apostle Paul urges believers to live in unity by walking worthy of their calling, showing humility, patience, and love for one another. This passage emphasizes the common elements shared by members of Christ's body, including one body, one Spirit, one hope, one Lord, one faith, one baptism, and one God and Father of all. Our unity in Christ is grounded in these shared beliefs and experiences.
