Well, we see ourselves as members of one another in the body of Christ, or we should if we know what the Scriptures say. But I don't see myself as being "one" with any other Christian. We we are given different gifts and abilities to perform our role in the body. While a foot may say that it is not an eye it cannot say that it is not a part of the body to paraphrase Paul in 1 Cor 12.

What does "as one in" mean ? Is this code for something else? I find that many "new Christians" have a lot of expressions which don't mean anything to anyone except to themselves, I guess. See below.

Not even! Too many Christians are too insecure with their faith, they feel the need to put other Christians down, simply because they don't believe EXACTLY the same.

We should. It is want He wanted. But no, we don't. We fight a lot. Divide and conquer. But I don't thing that the devil will succeed. Jesus said that too. "the gates of hell shall not prevail against it (the church)".

We try to, but, at times, our denominations get in the way.
