(5) That to be one
『That they all may be one;
as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us:
that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. And the glory which thou
gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one:』(John 17:21-22)
The spirit in
man were one as God originally. But they wanted to separate from God because
they wanted to be like God. That is evil toward God. In order to enter the
kingdom of God, the spirit must become one as God. The mediator is Jesus
Christ.
God and the spirit of
man can be one In Jesus Christ. The Lord God had forsaken his position and
became a human being. He was killed by humans. human being who believes in
Jesus must also be die with Jesus on the cross in order to become one as God.
Although the puddle
that was separated from the sea water was one as the sea originally. The puddle
is the dead water that the fish can not alive in. The way the puddle becomes
one as the sea is the way to break down the soil that sustain the puddle. In
order to be one as God, the body must be die with Jesus. This is baptism.
『For this cause shall a man
leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife,
and they two shall be one flesh. This is a great mystery: but I speak concerning Christ
and the church.』(Ephesians 5:31-32) Church is the spirit of the body to born again. Paul
explain that Christ was originally to be one as the spirits through between
Christ and Church.
