<h2>467. UNITY</h2>
|
|
<p>THE secret of the blessing the early Christians enjoyed, and the power they were for good, may be summed up in one word—"Unity." This is seen in connection with those trite and telling words, "One accord," which occur again and again in the Acts. Mark "Accord," not "Discord." The Church should be like a well-tuned harp, upon which the Master of Assemblies can play the melodies of righteousness and holiness of life, love to each other, and glory to God in the highest.</p>
