We are careful of our judgments of one another Matthew 7:1-5, consistency, with pure motives, w/o prejudice, etc. Do we give the benefit of the doubt? Respect liberties?

With one mouth and mind we glorify God Romans 15:6, our unity brings Him glory! E.g. In worship, we together glorify Him (Colossians 3:16, 1 Corinthians 10:16-17)

20 Being of one mind means:
We will grow as the body of Christ Ephesians 4:16, as every part does its share, the body will grow for the edifying of itself in love.
