Our nation was founded with the motto “E. Pluribus Unum” meaning Out of many One. Jesus Christ taught us that we are to be one as He and the Father are one. He gives us this important directive. There are many ways to improve and they all take effort. Here are four points to help us achieve that oneness that Christ desired we have. 1. Kindness, 2. Rooting out attitudes of Vengeance, 3. Rooting out envy, 4. Overcoming partiality.
