Living in Community ~ Acts 15:22-41 Having settled the issue of what it takes to be saved, the church took steps to clearly communicate the message in the interest of unity. This passage can serve as a guide to living in community as the body of Christ. 1. Defuse, don’t defend (22-27). 2. Suggest, don’t command (28-29). 3. Congregate, don’t isolate (30-35). 4. Disagree, don’t disassociate (36-41).
