"Members of One Another"
Romans 12:3-8 and Matthew 12:46-50
Christianity is not a solo quest, nor is it something we do together with no responsibility to one another. Scripture says that we are "members of one another," which means we share a deep spiritual bond and commitment to one another in Christ.

Community: The One Another Verses
One of the greatest gifts God gives us is the community of the Church. This community supports and encourages us in so many ways. It is also an important witness to the world and an essential tool for ministry as we reach out to those who don't know Jesus and seek to draw them into the Church. Yet, life in community isn't always easy. For that reason, this fall, we'll be looking at what is known as the "one another" passages. To paraphrase Scott Hubbard, the "one another" passages offer a brilliant picture of life together in community, not only under the lordship of Christ but also in the pattern of Christ. Rightly understood, the one-another passages are nothing less than the life of Christ at work in the people of Christ to the glory of Christ.
