07/12/20 Sunday Quote

“The unity of the church is not an optional add-on—something we can get to later, once we’ve gotten our doctrine straight. The church’s unity is foundational to her identity and mission. . . . He [God] has one bride, and her unity is so important that, as Paul stipulates in Ephesians 2:14, it was among the intended aims of Jesus’ atoning death: ‘he . . . has made us both one and has broken down in his flesh the dividing wall of hostility.’”

Gavin Ortlund, Finding the Right Hills to Die On (Wheaton: Crossway, 2020), 33.
