Bible Question: Why is the Christian Church so divided? |
Bible Answer: Denominations? I am not sure why people think we need them, they are just dividers. If they were needed Jesus would have split his disciples up but instead he teaches that we are one body of Christ. Denominations are mans creation, someone at some time wanted to believe more strongly in certain parts of the Bible than others or in some cases they took it upon themselves to alter the Bible and what it says. Denomination is like religious racism, just like races clash so do denominations. 2 Timothy 2:24 And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient. This verse says a servant of God will not strive when confronted. He will be ready to calmly teach and defend his views becuase they are from God. So shouldnt two people if they are servants of God be able to talk about the Bible in agreement? Amos 3:3 Can two walk together except they be agreed? |
