"That They May All be One": New Testament Images of Christian Unity Division seems to be the order of the day, not least in the Christian Church. This lecture examines seven images of Christian unity in the New Testament: mutual indwelling with God in love (John 17:20-23); Salt and Light (Matthew 5:13-16); A Menagerie: Profane Creatures Made Clean (Acts 10:9-16); The Broken Wall, a Holy Temple (Ephesians 2:14-22); A Cruciform Colony of Heaven (Philippians 1:272:4); One Body with Many Members (1 Corinthians 12); A Great Multitude from Every Nation (Revelation 7). Dr. Gorman, discusses how these images contribute to our understanding of Christian unity as a task and gift from God.
