Section 7

be one; even as You, Father, are in Me and I in You, that they also may be in Us, that the world may believe that You have sent Me." The word "Us" in this verse refers to the Triune God. All the believers are one in the Triune God. In order to be one in the Triune God, we must be sancti fied by the holy word. After we have been sanc tified, separated from the world by the holy word, we shall enjoy the Triune God and be one in Him. In order to be in the Triune God we must firstly be separated from the beach, the movie theater, the football stadium, the gambling house, and from all other worldly places, and be separated unto the Triune God. Many Christians have not yet been separated to God. Since they still remain in the worldly places, how can they be one? Al though you are a brother in life, where are you? You must be sanctified from all worldly amuse ments to God. In the Triune God, that is, in the Father through the Son as the Spirit, we shall be one.

The oneness in the Triune God through sanc tification by the holy word is the second aspect of the believers' oneness. In this aspect of one ness, the believers who have been separated from the world unto God enjoy the Triune God as the factor of their oneness. In order to maintain this

oneness, we must firstly take care of the real ity of the divine life and then of the sanctifica tion of the holy word. The holy word separates us from the world and restores us to the Father and to the Father's home. Although many of the brothers have been distracted by the world dur ing the past years, we thank the Lord that a good number of them have been recovered to the church life through the holy word. Both the divine life and the holy word are necessary for having the genuine oneness which results in the true building up of the church.
