In John 17, Jesus prayed for all believers to be just as He and the Father are - ONE. Now, it's hard to be one with your spouse, much less with every believer. Jesus asked for something so tight-knit, far beyond what many consider unity today. Paul urged the Corinthians to 'all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and the same judgment (1 Corinthians 1:10) which is God's standard of unity.
This oneness among believers is what Jesus said would cause the world to know that Jesus is the Son of God - the church's greatest evangelism tool. The only way that Christ's body will be one as the Father and Jesus are One is through God's kind of love. No wonder Satan tries to get believers to go at each others' throats. We spend billions of dollars a year on evangelism through television, radio, conventions, and crusades, yet, the world is not evangelized because the body of Christ is not united in love.
There is very little unity among believers today. This has occurred over thousands of years, and it probably won't be fixed overnight. We must strive towards unity but not be overwhelmed by the problem. All Christians have already been joined to each other through the body of Christ, and God the Father sees us all as His children. Man, not God, makes all divisions among Christians. For a brief period, the church enjoyed unity on earth. Regardless of the strife and division, all believers are still one in Christ and will live in perfect oneness throughout eternity. We are now one in Spirit. We must experience that unity here on earth.
'Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven' (Matthew 6:10).
