Paul saw his imprisonment as from God's sovereign hand (Eph. 4:1) The calling by which we have been called is the effectual call (1 Cor. 1:9, 24, 2:12 | 1 Tim. 6:12 | Phil. 1:27 | Col. 1:10) - We need to live a life consistent with this.
5 graces (Eph. 4:2-3 1. Humility - to be lowly minded, thinking rightly about our selves before God (Phil. 2:5-8, 3:3 | Rom. 7:18, 12:16 | 2 Cor. 3: 5 | Luke 9:23 | Col. 3:12-17 | 1 Pet. 5:5-6) 2. Gentleness - being kind and considerate (Gal. 6:1 | 2 Tim. 2:24 | Phil. 4:5 | 1 Pet. 3:4) 3. Patience - self controlled, taking a long time to get angry (1 Cor. 13:4 | 1 Thes. 5:14 | Exo. 34:6) 4.

How do we promote this unity - if you have an issue with someone go to that person (Matt. 18:15) - if someone has something against you then you go to them (Matt. 5:23-24 | Rom. 12:18) - participate in hospitality (Rom. 12:13 | 1 Pet. 4:9) - learn and promote the church doctrine to promote unity (Phil. 2:1-2) Colossians 3:12-17
