INTRODUCTION This is the third message on the importance of unity in the house of God. United we stand; divided we fall. This is true in every level of society, ministry, government, business, management and home. It is also true in the church, the body of Christ. We have a mandate from Scripture that we should be a specific kind of church. In previous messages, we identified seven clear goals for our church to pursue. When we live in unity, we reflect the perfect relationship in the Godhead: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We are one in spirit, one in purpose, one in passion for the kingdom of God. If we are focused on our own private agendas, how can the kingdom flourish? Mark Twain used to say he put a dog and a cat in a cage together as an experiment, to see if they could get along. They did, so he put in a bird, pig and goat. They, too, got along fine after a few adjustments. Then he put in a Baptist, Presbyterian, and Catholic; soon there was not a living thing left. "Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success." -Henry Ford The anointing on any of us is not as powerful as the anointing on all of us. Unity helps overcome the insurmountable and reach the unachievable. Unity brings to us the power to make the impossible possible and to change dreams to reality. The calling of every congregation is to be one that lives in harmony, working together with one heart and one soul, with a unified vision that causes us to be perfectly joined together, thus not allowing unresolved offenses to separate us, because we are one in spirit and one in purpose.

II. NECESSARY ATTITUDES TO MAINTAIN SPIRITUAL UNITY Ephesians 4:1-3 I, therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you to walk worthy of the calling with which you were called, with all lowliness and gentleness, with longsuffering, bearing with one another in love, endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. A. ATTITUDE IS 1. A settled mode of thinking-including beliefs, convictions and opinions-which dictates behavior. 2. The heart or spirit of man that influences his total life. 3. The direct result of our character and can be changed and shaped. 4. The attitude indicator is the most important instrument used for attitude flying. It is placed in the most prominent position on the aircraft instrument panel. It indicates the position of the aircraft in relation to the horizon. Attitude of the airplane indicates its performance; the attitude must change in order to change the performance. Life is 10% what happens to us and 90% how we respond ...
