Bill Teubl discusses Psalm 133, focusing on the importance of unity among believers as a reflection of the Holy Spirit’s work. He connects this unity to the broader biblical narrative of God’s communication through law, prophets, Christ, and the Spirit, emphasizing how spiritual growth inherently fosters deeper connections within the church.

  • [00:00:40] Introduces Psalm 133, a short psalm about the goodness of unity among brothers.
  • [00:01:02] Reads Psalm 133:1-3, highlighting unity as “good and pleasant” and comparing it to anointing oil and dew.
  • [00:02:00] Explains the progression of God’s revelation: law/prophets → Christ → Spirit. The Spirit now transforms believers into Christ’s likeness.

  • [00:13:49] Compares unity to priestly anointing oil (verse 2), symbolizing the Spirit’s transformative work in every aspect of life.
  • [00:20:48] Compares unity to Mount Hermon’s dew (verse 3), representing life-giving blessing for the church and others.
