Ephesians 4:1-6
These four virtues that make our hearts a place that Jesus is proud to call home culminate in a fifth virtue, peace. As peace can be defined as right relationships between people, peace leads to unity. All of the other virtues, humility, gentleness, patience, and love, require putting others ahead of ourselves. They require that we obliterate ourselves, and once we aren’t trying to be the center of things, Christ blooms in our hearts. When Christ has a complete claim on our hearts, then we have unity. Then, together, we are one body and one Spirit with one hope. We have one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God, and one Father.
