Experiencing union

(Quotations from The Bible)

Jesus:
Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also. At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.
(John 14:19-20)

Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, expcet it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.
(John 15:4-5)

Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word; Than they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one: I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.
(John 17:20-23)

John:
God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.
(1 John 4:16)

Paul:
He that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.
(1 Corinthians 6:17)
