40 Bible Verses About Togetherness

There’s nothing more beautiful than people living together in love and unity. Where there is togetherness, there is love and happiness abound. But sadly, this is not usually the case for most people in their homes, their workplaces, or wherever they find themselves.

Things happen in life that cause division in families, relationships, neighborhoods, workplaces, etc. But as Christians, we have been called to unity and togetherness. The bible encourages us to live in peace and harmony with each other.

So that even if we make mistakes or we hurt each other, we must try to let love and togetherness reign by forgiving. Virtues like forgiving, tolerance, patience, love, meekness, humility, help us to live together peacefully.
