Context of Romans 15:6

4For whatever was written in the past was written for our instruction, so that we may have hope through endurance and through the encouragement from the Scriptures. 5Now may the God who gives endurance and encouragement grant you to live in harmony with one another, according to Christ Jesus, so that you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ with one mind and one voice. 7Therefore welcome one another, just as Christ also welcomed you, to the glory of God. 8For I say that Christ became a servant of the circumcised on behalf of God’s truth, to confirm the promises to the fathers,

• Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 6That ye may with one mind - The word used here is translated “with one accord;” Acts 1:14; Acts 2:1; Acts 4:24.

That they might join without contention and unkind feeling, in the worship of God. Divisions, strife, and contention in the church prevent union in worship.
