Answer 1

Answer:

hope it help you mate

Explanation:

It is fairly common in discussion about church relations to cite Jesus’ so-called ‘high priestly’ prayer (John 17) and his concern ‘that they should be one’—not least because Jesus himself connects the unity of his followers with the oneness of God himself, and in both Christian and Jewish contexts this is a fundamental truth about the nature of God.

Answer 2

It is fairly common in discussion about church relations to cite Jesus’ so-called ‘high priestly’ prayer (John 17) and his concern ‘that they should be one’—not least because Jesus himself connects the unity of his followers with the oneness of God himself, and in both Christian and Jewish contexts this is a fundamental truth about the nature of God. What is less common is to cite the causes behind either unity or disunity, and Jesus also makes those unequivocally clear when he prays that the Father will ‘Sanctify them in the truth; your word is truth’ (17.17)—and this sanctification in truth is what leads to unity. And John, in writing his gospel as a true testimony to Jesus’ teaching, claims a particular role when he records Jesus including ‘those who will believe in me through their message’ (17.20). We can only be tough on disunity if we are tough on the causes of disunity.
