One

In John 17, Jesus prays:

I am no longer in the world, but they are in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, keep them safe in your name that you have given me, so that they may be one just as we are one. (v. 11)

I am not praying only on their behalf, but also on behalf of those who believe in me through their testimony, that they will all be one, just as you, Father, are in me and I am in you. I pray that they will be in us, so that the world will believe that you sent me. The glory you gave to me I have given to them, that they may be one just as we are one— I in them and you in me—that they may be completely one, so that the world will know that you sent me, and you have loved them just as you have loved me. (vv. 20-23)

“One just as we are one.” How is that? What is our prayed-for oneness being compared to?

I wonder if it might look something like this?

Or this?

I see unity. I see individuals. I see movement that’s movement together and movement inside of together (often described as a dance). When the Apostle John invites us into koinonia fellowship with one another and with the Father and the Son (1 John 1:3), might this be a way to see it?
