    Why Unity Among All Christians is Important

    (It appeared that my first response disappeared. I hope this is not the second post for the same reply.) Yes, you are right to a large extent. Please see my apology above. Yes, I do have faults. I suppose it is similar to the sin of Peter that Paul confronted in Gal 2:14. Peter’s sin hurt...

    Why Unity Among All Christians is Important

    Yes. I live on the eastern side of Orlando. I wrote an apology which may or may not show up after this post. If it does show up, I will post it again. (I started having problems after I wanted to edit another reply. Each effort to correct something seems to multiply the mistakes. It may be...

    Why Unity Among All Christians is Important

    (I hope this is not posting twice. I am still getting use to the system.) I am glad you replied. I think I must have brushed the touch pad and sent the reply accidentally. When the reply seemed to disappear, I thought better of what I should say and thus it looks like I replied twice, but...

    Why Unity Among All Christians is Important

    James 1:8 is talking about faith in what we pray for. I suppose that calling it inner unity is a good description. We all need peace, not as the world gives, but as Jesus gives—inner peace, which as you say is inner unity. But the purpose of God’s work does not stop with inner unity. God...

    Yes, you are right to a large extent. Please see my apology above. Yes, I do have faults. I suppose it is similar to the sin of Peter that Paul confronted in (Gal 2:14). Peter’s sin hurt the message of the gospel, but it did not change the truth of the gospel.

    Why Unity Among All Christians is Important

    I am glad you replied. I think I must have brushed the touch pad and sent the reply accidentally. When the reply seemed to disappear, I thought better of what I should say and thus it looks like I replied twice, but with different wording after the quote from John. So I apologize, please...

    Why Unity Among All Christians is Important

    No, the book is there to provide a safe way for people to contact me. It is a real book that I am glad to sell and is related to Church unity, but I did not write it and my intention was to give it to pastors. I am happy to give it away to anyone who is interested in Church unity. I am the...

    Why Unity Among All Christians is Important

    As long as Satan is in business, he will oppose unity, but that does not mean he will win. Paul wrote to the Romans, "The God of Peace will crush Satan under your feet shortly." (Rom 16:20) Our feet, God's work. My feet (and yours if you choose) and God's work.

    Why Unity Among All Christians is Important

    It is not up to us to determine who the true Christians are. Remember the parable of the wheat and the tares? The tares are the non-Christians that will not be separated until the end of the age. However, a good summary of the basics of what a true Christian believes is spelled out in 1 Cor...

    Why Unity Among All Christians is Important

    Yes, funny. Jesus prayed, "I do not ask on behalf of these alone, but for those also who believe in me through their word; that they may all be one; even as you, Father, are in me and I in you, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you sent me. The glory which you have...

    Why Unity Among All Christians is Important

    Yes, funny. Jesus was funny when he prayed, "I do not ask on behalf of these alone, but for those also who believe in me through their word; that they may all be one; even as you, Father, are in me and I in you, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you sent me. The...

    Sorry if I did something wrong. I have not read them for a while. I guess I overstepped a line. It will not happen again.

    Why Unity Among All Christians is Important

    I am pursuing Church unity in a new way. I am not advocating one institutional authority over the Church, which has never occurred in history. Unlike prior efforts to resolve differences through dialog and words of agreement, I believe that church leaders from around the world could be...

    does anyone wanna share their dreams?

    It is disappointing that only one person has shared a real dream. Probably like everyone else, I believe that most dreams mean nothing and that our faith is not in dreams, but in God. Of course, God can give someone a blessing through a dream. No one should take pride in dreams, but neither...
