Sunday 12/27/15   Series: Living in the Kingdom XI   Message – Unified in Purpose II Click here for the Video Unified in Purpose II We began today by reading a few passages about our union with God and the stated purpose for that union. John 14:20-23, “At that day you will know that I am in My Father, and you in Me, and I in you. (21) He who has My commandments and (habitually) keeps them, it is he who loves Me.
