Don't give up hope Blain, pray for unity of God people and our growing up to a perfect and mature man!!
There is to much heresy being taught by defferent churches so there will never be unity unless some are willing to compromise.
I for one will never compromise the truth for heresy.
Jesus never compromised, and never will I.
I guess I will not be part of the unity you want.
Can you elaborate on this please? some Christians I know think that there is only truth without grace and then the other Christians believe in grace without truth. Is that another division?
Anyway what do you think?
P.S. I somehow messed up on the quote thingy so I italicized it. sorry if that's confusing.[/QUOT
The most importand issue is salvation,( Eternal life in heaven with Jesus)a
Some teach that you must do certain works to obtain and keep salvation.
Some teach you must be baptised to obtain salvation.
Some teach you must be a member of their church to obtain salvation.
The truth is John 3:16, and once you obtain salvation, you can not lose it. God will not take back what He freely gives,
I will not compromise the truth as I have stated them, just to have unity and fellowship with those who teach heresy (lies and untrues)

1 John 2
Let Truth Abide in You
24 Therefore let that abide in you which you heard from the beginning. If what you heard from the beginning abides in you, you also will abide in the Son and in the Father. 25 And this is the promise that He has promised us—eternal life.
26 These things I have written to you concerning those who try to deceive you. 27 But the anointing which you have received from Him abides in you, and you do not need that anyone teach you; but as the same anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you will[e] abide in Him.
The Children of God
28 And now, little children, abide in Him, that when[f] He appears, we may have confidence and not be ashamed before Him at His coming. 29 If you know that He is righteous, you know that everyone who practices righteousness is born of Him.
