We looked at the first three verses last week. We saw that verse 1 was the call to the worthy walk, based on who we are as indicated in the first three chapters. Verse one is a topic sentence that governs the rest of this Epistle. Paul will spell out in detail how we can walk in a manner worthy of our calling, but in the first three verses he is stressing the importance of preserving the unity of the Spirit.

Someone asked Gandhi on one occasion, who was not a believer: "What is the greatest hindrance to Christianity in India?" And without hesitation, he answered: "Christians." That wouldn't be the case if these were attributes that all believers worked on. We are called to walk like this so that we will preserve unity.
