Section 1

The teaching opens with Dr. David turning to 1 Corinthians 1:10, where the Apostle Paul pleads for unity among believers. Paul warns against division in the church, urging everyone to agree together in mind and conviction under the name of Jesus Christ. David explains that this unity is essential, especially as spiritual and worldly pressures grow stronger. Believers must remember that their greatest battle is not political but spiritual—a conflict between the kingdom of God and the forces of darkness. He emphasizes that Christians lack nothing in Christ; everything needed for faith, patience, joy, and power is available through the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Christianity, he reminds, is not a religion of rigid rules but a living relationship with the living God, restored through Jesus’ redemptive work and sustained by the Holy Spirit.

Section 2

Paul’s concern, David explains, was not the presence of differing opinions but the spirit of superiority that divides believers. Unity does not mean uniformity; differences in non-essential matters—such as diets, holidays, or worship styles—are permissible when they do not undermine the essentials of the faith. The essentials, he declares, are clear: Jesus Christ as the only mediator between God and man, His death, burial, and resurrection, and the truth that salvation comes through Him alone. Other issues, like eschatology or church customs, belong to the realm of liberty, not salvation. Dr. David highlights the guiding principle: “In essentials, unity; in non-essentials, liberty; in all things, charity.” He urges believers to measure every disagreement by how it relates to Christ, not by personal pride or denominational loyalty.

Section 3

The message reaches its heart when David explains Paul’s correction to the Corinthian church: members were aligning themselves under human names—Paul, Apollos, Cephas, or even Christ—out of pride. The problem was not whom they followed but the “I” in their statements. Christianity, David insists, is not an individual sport but a team pursuit—a collective “we” following Christ together. Division weakens families, churches, and the body of Christ as a whole, while unity strengthens the Church’s witness against the powers of darkness. Jesus declared that the gates of hell would not prevail against His Church, reminding believers that victory belongs to the Lord. Dr. David concludes that the call is clear: abandon the “I” vision, embrace the “we” vision, and stand united under the banner of Jesus Christ, for every curse and every barrier has already been broken in Him.
