Uniting Believers for Gospel Witness
Bringing together the One diverse Body of Christ as a universal witness so that the world may believe Jesus was sent by the Father.
Jesus prayer for His Church in John 17:20-23 is for a unity that testifies.
Unity testifies as a witness of the glory of Gods saving plan in redemption. Jesus prays in His final hours before He goes back to the Father as His last prayer for a Supernatural unity of all believers in God together as witness to the world.
Christians united in physical visible demonstration of the transforming love of God testifies:
That the Father sent the Son. That the Father and Son are United as One in redeeming mission, Jesus being sent by the Father to save and redeem the world.
That the Father loves the Church, His own, just as He loves Jesus. And that they are carrying the mission forward of Gods saving plan of redemption, united in Gods mission.
Harvest Gathering Celebrations
Gods glory is the ultimate summation of all He does in the world. God does this through uniting all things in Christ. The physical visible display of God today is His Church universal. When the Church gathers together in unity, the world and all of the cosmos including angelic powers are on notice that the children of God are being revealed.
God has ordained times in the past for His people to come together as this physical visible demonstration of His glory. Pentecost and the Feast of Tabernacles were 2 of those OT times in which God gathered His people for the watching world and powers to see. Pentecost He would birth His church (Acts 2) and the Feast of Tabernacles He promised to withhold the blessing of future Harvest for those who dont come to celebrate and witness to the world of His blessing in unity (Zech 14:16-19).
Unity Testifies hosts Pentecost and Feast of Tabernacle Harvest Gatherings annually inviting the world to see what good things the Lord has done. The Children of God will reap the Harvest of the nations in celebration
One New Man
The purpose of God is His glory throughout the earth. His primary instrument for that today is the Church. In the Church, God unites all things in Christ to create One New Man out of all peoples. Not removing their God given differences, but to put them on display as His variegated, multifaceted, brilliant and glorious radiant bride without spot or blemish. This is the result of Jesus blood, reconciling all in Him and killing the hostility and tearing down the walls of separation. In the end, Jesus Bride will be perfect, spotless, and beautiful.
The Good News of the cross
Mankind is by nature hostile against God. And also hostile against his fellow humans who are the image bearers of God . This hostility entered the world through sin, creating cosmic confusion and chaos. We see this effect every area of our lives.
This radical state of humanity required a radical supernatural work to change. Only Jesus cross kills the hostility and reconciles man with God and with each other.
At the cross we are all united, sinners deserving judgment, but instead receiving Gods mercy, the forgiveness of our sins, and His grace, the Divine enablement to live by His Spirit. By the power of His blood, we become reconciled together with God and each other, born as a new supernatural race.

After this I looked, and Behold!, a great multitude that no one could number from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands and crying out with a loud voice “Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne and to the Lamb!”
— John the Apostle. Revelation 7:9-10
