The Resurrection Bond

Because Jesus rose again, we are personally and permanently bonded to each other.

2. We benefit from refreshing relationships of joy and holiness between persons and churches. (v.17-20)
3. Maintaining healthy community connections is one of our core values: so we insist on it, we protect it, and we restore it. (v.21-24)
