are in agreement and act
together for a particular
purpose
• Unity is working together,
living together, doing things
together in harmony.
• Unity is pretty much about
treating everyone as equal
and never looking down on
anyone for any reason.

Injure not the poor because they are poor, nor crush the needy at
the gate; for the Lord will defend their cause… Proverbs 22:22-23

EQUALITY means fair treatment

of people not based on status or
what one has in life such as:
• Equal access to
opportunities to promote
personal progress and
development.
• Equal access to quality
education
• Equal access to work and
employment opportunities
• Equal protection and
support under the law
They show that the demands of the law are written in their hearts, while their conscience
also bears witness and the conflicting thoughts accuse or even defend them. Romans 2:15

People obey the law for

three major reasons:
• to avoid legal
consequences
• respect to authority
• it is morally right to do
so.

For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses
life for my sake will save it. Mark 8:35

Patriotism or national pride is the

feeling of love, devotion and
sense of attachment to a
homeland and alliance with other
citizens who share the same
sentiment. This attachment can be
a combination of many different
feelings relating to one's own
homeland, including ethnic,
cultural, political or historical
aspects.
