What holds Christians together?

There is one perfect bond.

“So, as those who have been chosen of God, holy and beloved, put on a heart of compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and  patience;  bearing with one another, and forgiving each other, whoever has a complaint against anyone; just as the Lord forgave you, so must you do also. In addition to all these things put on love, which is the perfect bond of unity (Colossians 3:12-14 NASB).”

Love is like Super Glue; it works!

“But now faith, hope, and love remain, these three; but the greatest of these is love (1 Corinthians 13:13 NASB).”

God is great; God is love.

“Beloved, let’s love one another; for love is from God, and everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. The one who does not love does not know God, *"because' God is love.  By this the love of God was revealed in us, that God has sent His only Son into the world so that we may live through Him. In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.  Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another (1 John 4:7-11 NASB).” (*emphasis mine)
