Summary: <p>Jesus said in Matthew 18:20, "Where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them.” What does it mean to gather, or even just to live, in Jesus' name? It means to live in His likeness, as He would live, and to love the ones with whom we gather as He loves them. It's significant that this statement comes in the same passage as Jesus' instruction on godly conflict and His command to forgive our offenders seventy-seven times. To pray effectively, so that Jesus is present in our prayers, we must treat our brothers with the love of Jesus.</p>
