Sadly, instead of looking into the Scriptures for the Messiah of GOD’s people as they should, (John 5:39) they were more interested in creating traditions that made GOD’s WORD of no effect to HIS people. (Mark 7:13)
We like traditions over the word of God. Why is that?

A schism is a division between people, usually belonging to an organization, movement, or religious denominations.
And what is that point of division if truth be told?
Jesus came to divide so division is not a bad thing. What is Jesus point of division?

I would add, and it's worth mentioning,
That the very first schism involved an angel
Whom we call, satan...

would actually free the Gospel from the clutches of what became an unholy partnership between church and state Mr. Ness has this almost exactly backwards. In fact, the Reformation almost everywhere in Europe meant the replacement of the Church of Rome by the state-approved branch of Protestantism. In many churches in England, they actually replaced the crucifix on the "rood screen" (a wooden "bridge" marking the boundary between the nave and the sanctuary) with the Queen's coat of arms, just in case you were in any doubt about who was running the show.
All of those Reformation-era state churches are basically apostate now, and church attendance is a thing of the past.
