It is not the experience of Christian community, but firm and certain faith within Christian community that holds us together.
We are bound together by faith, not by experience.
Finally, all of you, have unity of spirit, sympathy, love for one another, a tender heart, and a humble mind. Do not repay evil for evil or abuse for abuse; but, on the contrary, repay with a blessing. It is for this that you were called-that you might inherit a blessing. 1 Peter 3:8-9
How very good and pleasant it is when kindred live together in unity! It is like the precious oil on the head, running down upon the beard, on the beard ofAaron, running down over the collar of his robes. Psalm 133:1-2
