42 A Crash Course in Biblical Communication Lesson Four: You must make every effort to maintain unity.
43 A Crash Course in Biblical Communication Lesson Four: You must make every effort to maintain unity. Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body... (Colossians 3:15). Over and over again the New Testament emphasizes God s desire for peace and unity in the church. Now I exhort you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all agree and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be made complete in the same mind and in the same judgment. (1 Corinthians 1:10; cf. Romans 12:16 2 Corinthians 13:11, Ephesians 4:3, Philippians 1:27, 2:2, 1 Thessalonians 5:13, 1 Peter 3:8). These imperatives for believers to be at peace with each other are to be the one of the ruling principles in all of our attempts at conflict resolution.
