Sermon:
The Importance of Unity
Psalm 133:1-3 A Song of Ascents. Of David. Behold, how good and
how pleasant it is For brethren to dwell together in unity! It is
like the precious oil
upon the head, Running down on the beard, The beard of Aaron,
Running down on the edge of his garments. It is like the dew of
Hermon, Descending
upon the mountains of Zion; For there the LORD commanded the
blessing-- Life forevermore.
Psalm 133 is known as the psalm of unity and it is not
coincidence that the psalm has three verses, for in the number 3,
we have the number of divine
completeness and perfect witness. 2 Cor. 13:1 This will be the
third time I am coming to you. "By the mouth of two or three
witnesses every word shall
be established."
Unity Defined:
Behold, how good and how pleasant it is For brethren to dwell
together in unity!
The unity that God wants is not uniformity, imitation or
compromise of doctrinal beliefs. It is a baptism into the Holy
Spirit. 1 Cor. 12:13 For by one
Spirit we were all baptized into one body--whether Jews or
Greeks, whether slaves or free--and have all been made to drink
into one Spirit.
Unity Described:
It is like the precious oil upon the head, Running down on the
beard, The beard of Aaron, Running down on the edge of his
garments. It is like the dew
of Hermon, Descending upon the mountains of Zion;
Like the Oil: the oil spoken of is the anointing oil which the
bible gives specific ingredients and quantities to be used - myrrh,
cinnamon, calamus, cassia
mixed with the oil of the olive. This oil was not to be imitated
nor poured upon any flesh. All these elements mixed together became
one oil that was
used in the anointing of people in ministry and the vessels of
the sanctuary. Five speaks of Grace the oil itself the Holy Spirit
so by grace our we
saved then baptized into one body by The Holy Spirit so IN THE
SPIRIT we find true unity and power to be
Upon the Head: Aarons head which is typical of our great High
Priest Jesus - Ephes. 1:22 And He put all things under His feet,
and gave Him to be
head over all things to the church so we to receive the Holy
Spirit through the work of Christ on the cross He comes sent from
the head - John 16:7
Nevertheless I tell you the truth. It is to your advantage that
I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to
you; but if I depart, I will
send Him to you.
Running down: the garments always speak of ministry and
lifestyle the ministry and lifestyle of Jesus should effect our
ministry and lifestyle bringing us
into the unity of the brethren - Ephes. 4:13 till we all come to
the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a
perfect man, to themeasure of the stature of the fullness of
Christ
Like the dew of Hermon, Descending upon the mountains of
Zion:
Hermon was a mountain which flourished because of the heavy dew
that rested upon it, a fruitful place the mountains of Zion tended
to be barren and
lifeless so the first message this picture displays is one that
unity makes the barren and lifeless place fruitful the second
message of this illustration was
the prophetic inevitability of the dividing of Gods people
Hermon was located in the area later to be inhabited by the
northern tribes (Israel) and Zion
became the habitation of the two southern tribes, Judah and
Benjamin (Judah) which occurred
