THE ONENESS OF BELIEVERS DEFINED

A group of differing individuals who place the same faith in the same God and think with the same mind in order to accomplish the same thing with the same power at the same time in the same place but not in the same way.  Jesus’ prayer in John 17 indicates that this unity is the work of God, not merely the effort of the believers themselves.

3661 ὁμοθυμαδόν [homothumadon /hom·oth·oo·mad·on/] adv. From a compound of the base of 3674 and 2372; TDNT 5:185; TDNTA 684; GK 3924; 12 occurrences; AV translates as “with one accord” 11 times, and “with one mind” once. 1 with one mind, with one accord, with one passion. Additional Information: A unique Greek word, used 10 of its 12 New Testament occurrences in the Book of Acts, helps us understand the uniqueness of the Christian community. Homothumadon is a compound of two words meaning to “rush along” and “in unison”. The image is almost musical; a number of notes are sounded which, while different, harmonise in pitch and tone. As the instruments of a great concert under the direction of a concert master, so the Holy Spirit blends together the lives of members of Christ’s church.[1]

homothumadon (ὁμοθυμαδόν, 3661), “of one accord” (from homos, “same,” thumos, “mind”), occurs eleven times, ten in the Acts, 1:14; 2:46; 4:24; 5:12; 7:57; 8:6; 12:20; 15:25; 18:12, 19:29, and the other in Rom. 15:6, where, for kjv, “with one mind,” the rv has “with one accord,” as throughout the Acts.
