United Through Scripture

If we have been UNITED with him like this in his death, we will certainly also be united with him in his resurrection. Romans 6:5

My purpose is that they may be encouraged in heart and UNITED in love, so that they may have the full riches of complete understanding, in order that they may know the mystery of God, namely, Christ. Colossians 2:2

"That is why a man will leave his father and mother and be UNITED with his wife, and the two will become one flesh." Ephesians 5:31

For indeed we have had good news preached to us, just as they also; but the word they heard did not profit them, because it was not UNITED by faith in those who heard. Hebrews 4:2

Brothers and sisters, I encourage all of you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to agree with each other and not to split into opposing groups. I want you to be UNITED in your understanding and opinions. 1 Corinthians 1:10

Make my joy complete by being of the same mind, maintaining the same love, UNITED in spirit, intent on one purpose. Philippians 2:2

We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may be UNITED with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ. 1 John 1:3

If Jewish people do not continue in their unbelief, they will be UNITED back into the tree again, because God is able to do that. In spite of the fact that you have been cut from a wild olive tree, you have been UNITED onto a cultivated one. So wouldn't it be easier for these natural branches to be UNITED onto the olive tree they belong to? Brothers and sisters, I want you to understand this mystery so that you won't become arrogant. The minds of some Israelites have become closed until all of God's non-Jewish people are included. In this way Israel as a whole will be saved, as Scripture says, "The Savior will come from Zion. He will remove godlessness from Jacob.My promise to them will be fulfilled when I take away their sins." Romans 11:23-27
