Paul and the Church: Unity of the Body
Author: Bobby Valentine | Filed under: Bible, Church, Exegesis, Kingdom, N.T. Wright, PreachingThis homily by N. T. Wright delivered to the students at Wheaton College should resonate quite well with us from a Stoned-Campbell background. We need to be reminded that unity is hardly a marginal thought in the New Testament!

thank you for this, Bobby. I desperately needed this reminder today.

Hmm, I didn’t need a doctorate to know that Unity was a main theme in many of the epistles… and here N.T. Wright is affirming what I’ve been trying to teach others. It’s a shame that our brotherhood has looked past that and emphasised a ‘new law’ over the Law of Love.

I love it when Wright begins to move from teaching over into something more like preaching. He ought to do it more, I think. Thanks for posting this, Bobby.
