Ecclesiastes 4:10 10 For if they fall, one will lift up his fellow. But woe to him who is alone when he falls and has not another to lift him up!

3. Increased Passion

Ecclesiastes 4: Again, if two lie together, they keep warm, but how can one keep warm alone?

4. Increased Power

Ecclesiastes 4:12 12 And though a man might prevail against one who is alone, two will withstand him--a threefold cord is not quickly broken.

John 17:21 that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me.

Genesis 11:4-5 4 Then they said, "Come, let us build ourselves a city and a tower with its top in the heavens, and let us make a name for ourselves, lest we be dispersed over the face of the whole earth." 5 And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of man had built.

Genesis 11:6 6 And the LORD said, "Behold, they are one people, and they have all one language, and this is only the beginning of what they will do. And nothing that they propose to do will now be impossible for them.
