John 17: 21 states, ” That they (you and I) may all be one, even as you, Father, are in Me, and I in You, that they also, may be in Us; that the world may believe that You did send Me.” This is oneness! Because of this oneness, we the Body of Christ receive all of the fullness of God that was imparted to Christ Jesus who imparts it to us. This was done in love! Division is what hinders this oneness from reaching every part and joint of the Body of Christ, trying to isolate and stop the flow of the oneness and love that is meant to be available to all who are the Body of Christ!

Oneness enables each of us to appropriate the Fathers love and fullness that comes through Jesus, so that we can love and maintain that oneness towards every other brother or sister in the Body. Every part of this many-membered Body is unique and diverse, ministering the oneness and love. This is what makes up the family of God. The Kingdom of God is the family of God functioning here on earth in the fullness of God as the Body of Christ.
