so that with one mind and one voice you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ
so that
This phrase indicates purpose or result. In the Greek, it is often translated from "hina," which introduces a purpose clause. The Apostle Paul is expressing the desired outcome of the unity he has been discussing. The purpose of unity among believers is not merely for harmony's sake but for a higher spiritual goal.

with one mind
The Greek term here is "homothumadon," which conveys a sense of being unanimous or having a shared passion. Historically, this term was used to describe a group acting in unison, such as a choir singing in harmony. In the context of the early church, this unity of mind was crucial for the spread of the Gospel and the establishment of the church amidst diverse cultural backgrounds.

and one voice
This phrase emphasizes the outward expression of the inward unity. The Greek word "stoma" refers to the mouth or speech, indicating that believers are to express their unity through their words and praises. In the early church, this would have been particularly powerful as a testimony to the surrounding pagan cultures, demonstrating the transformative power of the Gospel.

you may glorify
The verb "doxazō" in Greek means to render or esteem glorious. The ultimate aim of Christian unity is to bring glory to God. This reflects the biblical theme that all creation exists to glorify its Creator. In a historical context, glorifying God was a central aspect of Jewish worship, and Paul extends this to the Christian community, emphasizing that their unity is a form of worship.

the God and Father
This phrase underscores the relationship between God and believers. The Greek "ho theos kai patēr" highlights both the sovereignty of God and His intimate relationship as Father. This duality is central to Christian theology, where God is both transcendent and immanent. Historically, this understanding would have been radical to both Jews and Gentiles, who had different conceptions of deity.

of our Lord Jesus Christ
The title "Lord" (Greek "Kyrios") affirms the divinity and authority of Jesus, while "Jesus Christ" acknowledges His role as the Messiah. This phrase encapsulates the Christian confession of faith, recognizing Jesus as both Savior and Lord. In the early church, this was a profound declaration, especially in a Roman context where Caesar was often hailed as lord. The acknowledgment of Jesus as Lord was both a theological and political statement, affirming allegiance to Christ above all earthly powers.

(6) With one mind and one mouth. . . .--It is in the heart that the spirit of humanity arises, and with the mouth that it is expressed.
