Let's look at ten more things that unite all Christians.
101. According to Your Faith
All Christians believe that Jesus told people they were or would be healed according to their faith. (Matthew 9:22, 29; Mark 2:5; 5:34; 10:52; Luke 5:20; 7:50; 8:48; 17:19; 18:42)
102. Jesus Healed the Blind
All Christians believe that when two blind men asked for mercy, Jesus asked, “Do you believe that I am able to do this?" (Matthew 9:28) Then Jesus replied, "According to your faith be it done to you" (vs. 29) and their eyes were opened.
103. Casting out Demons
All Christians agree that Jesus cast out demons and certain religious leaders falsely accused Him, "By the prince of the demons, he casts out demons." (Matthew 9:34) He also gave the twelve disciples authority to cast out demons and heal people (Matthew 10:1; Mark 6:7; Luke 9:1-2)
102. No Reception
All Christians believe that the Gospel will not always be well received. “Whoever will not receive you nor hear you, as you depart from there, shake off the dust that is under your feet for a testimony against them.” (Mark 6:11a cf. Matthew 10:14-15; Luke 9:5)
103. Persecution
All Christians believe that persecution will come and in some oppressive countries it already exists. (Matthew 10:19-28; Luke 12:2-11)
104. Family Division
All Christians believe that there is a very real possibility that some family members will be against us because of our faith. “Do you think that I have come to give peace in the earth? I tell you, no, but rather division.” (Luke 12:51 cf. Matthew 10:34-37)
105. Take up our Cross
All Christians believe that we must take up our cross and follow Jesus. “He who doesn't take his cross and follow after me, isn't worthy of me.” (Matthew 10:38 cf. Matthew 16:24-26; Mark 8:34-38; Luke 9:23-26; 14:27)
106. Feeding 5,000
All Christians believe that Jesus miraculously provided a meal for a large crowd (Matthew 14:14-21; Mark 6:34-44; Luke 9:11-17; John 6:2-14). “They gathered up twelve baskets of broken pieces that were left over.” (Luke 9:17b)
107. Walking on Water
All Christians believe that Jesus walked on water and those in the boat worshipped him. (Matthew 14:23-33; Mark 6:46-53; John 6:15-21).
108. The Work of God
All Christians believe that, "This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he has sent." (John 6:29)
109. The Bread of Life
All Christians believe Jesus is the Bread of Life and that means we can live forever. He said, "I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will not be hungry, and he who believes in me will never be thirsty… I am the bread of life. Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and they died. This is the bread which comes down out of heaven, that anyone may eat of it and not die. I am the living bread which came down out of heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever. Yes, the bread which I will give for the life of the world is my flesh." (John 6:35, 48-51)
110. The Father Draws
All Christians believe what Jesus said that, “No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him, and I will raise him up in the last day. It is written in the prophets, 'They will all be taught by God.' Therefore everyone who hears from the Father, and has learned, comes to me.” (John 6:44-45)
