In this fifth posting, we are continuing the blog series with content from biblical scholar Scot McKnight. |
Living in unity as a fellowship, or a common life together, is a great idea. Until you have to get along with someone you don't like. It only takes a little while to encounter such a person. We cannot expect uniformity or consensus on everything, but we are to strive for an achievable unity. The emphasis on a common life and unity in this short letter requires that we assume fractures and fissures had formed among the believers in Philippi, and Paul is urging them to transcend their divisions. |
