Thanks for your ping.
IMHO: The differences between Calvinist and non_Calvinists on God and man are so stark that I wouldn’t call it a “united faith.” Closer to different religions.
This and the issues such a baptism also illustrate that disunity and the core problem of sola scriptura to having a truly unified Body of Christ.

Or there’s been a kind of visceration of language. One group describes the tenets of another as damnable heresies. Then they claim “unity”.
EITHER heresy means something trivial, OR “unity” means something trivial, OR this claim means something trivial.
I imagine to someone looking in from outside it would seem like that. The differences are questions of discernment. Evangelicals are united in their belief of The Gospel and Scripture being the rule of the faith.

The problem with a hierarchy is it becomes a control freak. The desire of men to have absolute power over others to the point of even controlling what they are allowed to think is nothing new.
