What are some ways in which Christians seek the unity that jesus prayed for us?
Well, the identifying of true Christians is love. Jesus said this at John 13:34,35. "By this all will know that you are my disciples if you have love among yourselves." So, a true Christian organization would have to show love among themselves. One way they would do this would be to not take up swords or go to war against one another. (Or anyone for that matter.) Jesus set the example in this when he said at Matthew 26:52 ..."those who take the sword will perish by the sword."
What does He who lives by the sword dies by the sword mean?
Lets us examine this:Matt 26:52 Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword.Ephesians 6:17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.Finally the book of JohnJohn 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.John 1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
Who gave permission for Jesus to die?
Jesus said in John 10:17-18 the following: "For this reason the Father loves Me, because I lay down My life so that I may take it again. No one has taken it away from Me, but I lay it down on My own initiative. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it up again. This commandment I received from My Father." So we can see that Jesus willingly gave His life and that no man took it from Him, either Roman or Jewish. This was also seen at Jesus arrest in Matthew 26:52-53 when Peter drew his sword to defend Jesus: Then Jesus said to him, "Put your sword back into its place; for all those who take up the sword shall perish by the sword. Or do you think that I cannot appeal to My Father, and He will at once put at My disposal more than twelve legions of angels?"
