Let us abandon the world, let us go towards Christ, united, in agreement.

Unity makes God be with us

Acts 2:1-4
1 When the day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.

And suddenly there came from heaven a sound like a mighty rushing wind that blew,
which filled the whole house where they were seated;
And tongues appeared to them, distributed like fire, resting on each one.
from them.
And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues,
as the Spirit gave them utterance.

Being united in Christ, we will feel His Holy Spirit acting within us,
recognizing ourselves in the need of others, our hearts overflowing with love.

Close to you....what you feel when you give...The Holy Spirit....the people who tell you, and
now?

There are no more divisions.

Walk in unity.

In the Church, one of the signs of apostasy (abandoning, drifting away from the truth) is
the dispute and disunity among Christians. Jesus said that the world would know that we are
his disciples for the love that we had for one another:

John 13:35 By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.
one another.

That is the bond that makes us one in Christ: love, for GOD, for our neighbor.
But not a love of commitment or a historical love (the one that reminds us every day of that)
story that we want to leave behind, the one in which we did wrong and felt good.
We need a love that unites us.

El Roble Church: lunches. Experience with Brother Montoya.

Now then; what is it that unites us?


First of all, it is the salvific work of Christ that unites us. Second, it is the
fundamental doctrines defined by the Church. We have, as a common inheritance, the
blood of Christ that has been shed for the forgiveness of our sins. Christians
true ones serve the living and true God and we know Jesus in a personal way and
intimate (1 Corinthians [Link] "God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship with his
"Son Jesus Christ our Lord"). We have been redeemed by God himself. Even more, we have
the Scriptures that tell us what the fundamental doctrines of the faith are and to deviate from
this means being outside the field of Christ.
Why then, and for practical purposes, do we elevate what is not fundamental to
place of what it really is? I believe this is due to the immaturity and pride of many Christians
who prioritize the fruits of this world over the promise of eternal salvation.
Shouldn't we sacrifice our perfect intention of being better Christians for
a continuous and dedicated task to being kind to other brothers or sisters in
Christ?

I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called, With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love; Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; One Lord, one faith, one baptism.

1 I therefore, the prisoner in the Lord, urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling with

that you were called,


with all humility and gentleness, bearing with one another in patience
in love,
3 solicitous to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace;
4 one body, and one Spirit, as you were also called to one hope
of your vocation;
One Lord, one faith, one baptism.
Instead of speaking the same things the world speaks (hunger, misery, high prices, evil),
let us repeat our blessings, those that the LORD promised us and that we have enjoyed
until now, even without deserving it.

We are creatures. Behold, the old things have passed away; all things are made new.

And if everything is done again:

Therefore do not be anxious, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.

31 Therefore do not worry, saying: What will we eat, or what will we drink, or what

Will we dress?
32 For the Gentiles seek all these things; but your heavenly Father knows that
you have need of all these things.
But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.

they will be added.

34 So do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own
vexation. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.

Brother.
Ask yourself: What is most important in life? Is it your relationship with God? If it is
So, and in fact it has to be that way, shouldn't I then seek what God wants? Shouldn't I?
Should I also be seeking to love others as Christ commanded us? Love is the
perfect unity bond.

Colossians 3:14 And above all these things put on love, which is the bond
perfect

Promises:
If we practice UNITY in everything with our family, partner,
congregation and community, the Lord will be among us to fill us with His
Holy Spirit, to give us of your gifts, and to receive what we ask according to your will.

Let's be united together. Let's find ways to be so and to do it.

I have already mentioned to you various ways in which the people of GOD have come together to

convert this wanting that ignites in our hearts every Saturday, into a daily action,
every day, hand in hand with my brother.
Because when we join our brother, in the day-to-day, in his need and in the
our, when we rejoice in his victories and ours, because we live it with him,
Clinging to your hand, steadfast in the faith of the promise: I can't do it alone, but I can with you.

When we are unanimous together... look at your side... in front... behind...


Close your eyes and think of that brother or sister you love so much.
When we are unanimous together, the bench where that brother or sister sits,
my brother, will no longer be empty, and together in CHRIST they will continue until eternity.

This quarter's brochure: mingle, show sympathy, minister to the people


in their needs and gain their trust....and then: follow me.

Reflection:
Are we walking in UNITY, united with our brothers?

Brothers, it is very important that we strive to live in UNITY, according to


the will of God, so that the Lord pours out His Spirit and fills us with His Spirit, lets us
give your gifts and let us live blessed.

The brochure: Our call is to pray for the Holy Spirit to touch the
emotions and the intellects of people, so that they open up to their love.

Let us pray:
Father, we love you, we bless you, today we agree with the brothers that
they listen to this message, to ask you for forgiveness for the divisions we have caused, for
our lack of forgiveness, peace, and asking you to help us maintain that UNITY, that
you want for us, so that you may pour out your Spirit in our lives. We entrust to
our partners, families, children, grandchildren, congregations, so that we can live UNITED and
United, we ask it in the name of JESUS, for the Father to be glorified, Amen.

Whoever loses their life for my sake and the gospel will save it.
