In our effort to build The Church, God asks us to provoke to unity and provides a wonderful play by play on how we can accomplish that. The key is to treat others in a way that the world does not! That means we comfort one another, we weep when others weep, we rejoice when others rejoice. When we act the way God suggests then we lose our foolishness, we grow up into Him individually, which helps to grow The Church. Some of the practices we should endevour to do are love without hypocracy and abhor that which is evil. We should have an intense desire to edify one another and that our dedication to spiritual matters should have the end goal of edifying each other. We should be children in malice, forgetting and forgiving our anger one towards another. We should seek peace but more actively we should try to make peace. How good it is for brothers to walk in unity.
