Am a bit shocked.

Are you minimizing or laying aside the

importance, efficacy, viability, functionality, crucial priority Christ gave to and his prayer that

we might be One even as He and His Father are one?

And, I'm NOT talking about satan driven, shallow, pseudo ecumunicism of folks not really Christian to begin with toward a one world government/religion. That evil plan and movement IS from the pit.

HOWEVER, HOLY SPIRIT is fostering some authentic UNITY BEFORE THE CROSS IN THE BLOOD AND HOLYS SPIRIT OF JESUS. And all who fight that will be broken on, crushed beneath THE ROCK, CHRIST JESUS.

tHIS IS A MORE THAN CHALLENGING AREA TO ARTICULATE ABOUT--THERE'S SOOOO MUCH HYPER VENTILATING, BRAZEN ERROR AND UNBIBLICAL FEAR MONGERING that the word "unity" has almost come to be seen as a totally satanicly possessed and appropriated term of no use to authentic Christians any more.

My God is bigger than that.

And His Children who refuse to allow HIM to make THEM bigger than that are in danger of rejecting Him as their true Father.

Some of our congregational distinctives have been used of God to highlight aspects of Him and His Gospel which have gotten somewhat lost in the shuffle in this or that era or spiritual/geographical locale.

A lot of them are merely ego driven doctrines of men and doctrines of demons wounding the heart of Jesus afresh and driving sharp prickly unnecessary daggers between the sheep. God is not amused and will be cleaning up that mess with all who truly submit to Him as LORD GOD ALMIGHTY in their hearts.

I read your linked article anticipating that I might learn something instructive or edifying given my great respect for your typical spiritual judgment. I found the article a disgrace to the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

The article wholesale reminded me of the disciples who were ready to rebuke or worse folks who were spreading the Gospel while Jesus was still walking dusty paths because such folks were not doing it precisely THEIR WAY. Jesus rebuked them harshly, sternly.

It also reminded me of the pharisees who were so chronically eager to take up rocks against folks who were not memorizing and practicing their thousand and one added on rules and regulations of their law which they so deadly used to burden and kill people while avoiding shouldering the burdens themselves.

What a travesty. What an outrage against our Lord and His Passion for His priorities.
