Dear Brother Ed, Don't mistake my passion for the Truth for "being inflamed" over your words. :-) Many denominations are divided over *exactly* this issue: What consistitutes the Gospel? Therefore, your ranting on the denominationalism will *always* bring us back to this precise sticking point! Ecumenism has even more serious flaws than does denominationalism. I can declare this with a clear conscience, as I passionately promote unity in the Holy Spirit in my local church, which is beholding to no other human organization, nor does it seek to create such an organization. In Him, Doc |

"If two churches disagree doctrinally... ...it is fine that they remain separate." Doc: I agree with you completely when you write: "Ecumenism has even more serious flaws than does denominationalism." I quote from the website www.gotquestions.org: 'We, as believers, must believe the same on the essentials of the faith, but beyond that there is great latitude in how a Christian should worship, serve, and live his life. This latitude is what causes so many different flavors of Christianity. 'Diversity is a good thing, but disunity is not. IF TWO CHURCHES DISAGREE DOCTRINALLY, IT IS FINE THAT THEY REMAIN SEPARATE. 'This separation, though, does not lift the responsibility Christians have to love one another (1John 4:11-12) – and ultimately be united as one in Christ (John 17:21-22).'

Doctrine Divides '"Doctrine divides" has been the hue and cry. Yes, doctrine does divide - that’s its very purpose. It divides us from the Jehovah’s Witnesses and from those . . . who promote a distorted view of Christ and His atonement.' -- Paul R. Belli and G. Richard Fisher |
