BLESSED BY DIVISION
IN ALL HONESTY, the unity in the spirit of God that we profess within the fellowships just isn’t there. But notice that I said the unity of the spirit. We do in fact have a unity, but too often it is a unity in things contrary to the will of God. Mathew 10:34-36 says
34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.
36 And a man's foes shall be they of his own household
