Get along with each other,
and forgive each other. If someone does
wrong to you, forgive that person
because the Lord forgave you.

Colossians 3:13

Unity doesn’t begin in examining others but in examining self. Unity begins not in demanding that others change, but in admitting that we aren’t so perfect ourselves….

The answer to arguments? Acceptance. The first step to unity? Acceptance. Not agreement, acceptance. Not unanimity, acceptance. Not negotiation, arbitration, or elaboration. Those might come later but only after the first step, Acceptance.
