In Ephesians 4, Paul begins the second portion of his letter to the church in Ephesus. In Chapters 1-3, the apostle lays the theological foundation for who the church is and how they were called to participate in God plan. Now, in 4:1 the expected results and then laid out -- which begins with a plea for unity. This plea, appeal, or urging to maintain the peace is done by three attitudes (humility, gentleness, patience) a command (bear with one another), and then a purpose (maintain the unity and peace). This unity can be broken down into three ideas in the text: one walk, one body, and one goal.
