Unity in the Christian Church is maintained by the power of the Holy Spirit, despite all the sins, strife, and prideful delusions that men are prone to use, which tend to tear the church apart.

Speaking the same thing based on the same standard, the word of God!
"Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye 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 in the same judgment." (1 Cor 1:10)
An example of this type of unity is shown in Acts 2:41-47.

There are many things that unify the body of Christ. Among them are love, peace, God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, etc. May God Bless U.
