Which statement highlight unity in Eph 4:4-6?

There is unity through many bodies and many spirits.

There is one Lord and several faiths with multiple baptisms.

There is one body, and one Spirit; just as you were called to one hope; one Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all.

The passage presents unity as a shared, divine foundation that binds all believers together. Paul lists seven “ones” to show that the church’s unity comes from God and the gospel, not from human effort or clever schemes: one body (the church), one Spirit (the Spirit who unites believers), one hope (the shared calling we all share), one Lord (Christ), one faith (the gospel we confess), one baptism (the initiation into God’s people), and one God and Father of all (the ultimate source of all believers). This tight, sevenfold unity pushes back against divisions and emphasizes that believers are collectively gathered into one divine purpose under one God.

That’s why the correct choice is the best: it matches the exact pattern and message Paul uses—unity expressed through the repeated “one” language that binds all believers into a single, God-centered community. The other options introduce plurality or human effort without the same scriptural emphasis on the single Holy Spirit, single Lord, and single baptism, which are essential to the unity Paul describes.

Unity is achieved by personal effort alone.
