The Unity Christ Desires

Jesus prayed that all who hear might believe and be one: one in confession, one in mind, and one in heart. This unity even goes further, for he said that it is like the unity which he has with his Father. This is the unity expressly accomplished which he, our Brother, ascended into the heavenly realm and sat down, as man, at the right hand of the Father. For the mystery of the Gospel is this: that God became man, in order that man might become divine, utterly and substantially united with his Maker, in whose image he was made. Sermon for midweek of Exaudi.
