One

There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; One Lord, one faith, one baptism, One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.

Ephesians 4:4-6

Paul speaks here of the “ones” of the Christian faith. They are…

**One Body

**One Spirit

**One Hope

**One Lord

**One Faith

**One Baptism

**One Father

There are not many ways to heaven. Only one way leads to paradise. Jesus is the way. Christ is the one way. Christ is the only way.

How Shall We Live?

How should we as believers live? How should we conduct ourselves in our time here on earth? Let’s look at what the Scriptures tell us about the behavior of the Christian.

**Let us conduct ourselves joyfully.

Clap your hands, all you peoples; Shout to God with a voice of joy.

Psalm 47:1

**Let us conduct ourselves compassionately.

Be kind to one another, compassionate, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you.

Ephesians 4:32

**Let us conduct ourselves wisely.

The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, But a person who listens to advice is wise.

Proverbs 12:15

**Let us conduct ourselves excellently.

Therefore, my beloved brothers and sisters, be firm, immovable, always excelling in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.

1 Corinthians 15:58

Let us go and go likewise!
