Genesis 2:8 And Jehovah God planted a garden in Eden, in the east; and there He put the man whom He had formed.
God is one, and the man created by God was also one. This unique man was placed in front of the unique tree of life. After the corporate man created by God had been divided into nations, God selected one man, Abraham. Then, centuries later, He produced one church. Ultimately, God will have one eternal city with one throne, one street, one river, and one tree. In each of the four great acts of God, therefore, we see the principle of oneness. This should cause us to realize that the church today must be in oneness and must be built on the ground of oneness. Oneness is the very ground of the church. May the Lord grant us more light concerning this precious oneness. (Collected Works of Witness Lee, 1979, vol. 2, “The Genuine Ground of Oneness,” p. 242)
