Question source
Ephesians
Ephesians urges maintaining “the unity of the Spirit” and then lists shared realities: “one body… one Spirit… one hope… one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all.” The list functions as the stated basis for unity. See Ephesians 4:3–6.
3being eager to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
4There is one body, and one Spirit, even as you also were called in one hope of your calling;
5one Lord, one faith, one baptism,
6one God and Father of all, who is over all, and through all, and in us all.
