To be honest I think we all have it wrong in a way so many verses go both ways. I think we have split and split. I am ready to see church reunite. We can not even agree on the color of our carpet. Red for the Blood someone else says Purple for repentance what about throw up green for our pleasant state

Hi, the church throughout the whole bible squabbled like a bunch of sparrows

Hi, friend, it should come as no surprise that there exists so much division in the church...it's because the truth divides.


Everyone knows a skeletal "joint" is comprised of "parts" such as bones and marrow, tendons, cartilage, etc, and that any of these components can be divided from the joint by means of a bone saw or scalpel. The fact that these things can be divided one from another proves these things are DIFFERENT one from another.

So, why do "Bible believers" refuse to acknowledge the difference between the "soul" and "spirit" which the verse plainly says are as easily divided one from the other as the joints and marrow are divided one from the other? The text plainly says the soul is the "whole" from which the spirit "part" can be divided as easily as the joint "whole" is that from which the marrow "part" can be divided. A quick glance at Genesis 2:7 KJV reveals that the soul "whole" is comprised of the two "parts": the body and the spirit/breath of life. No division or dichotomy between the OT and NT. Yet....almost the entire Christian world claims there's no difference between the soul and spirit and therefore reads that at death "the spirit shall return to God Who gave it" and concludes the soul is immortal and flies off to God at death (or goes burning in hell).

Church division -- it's got nothing to do with anything else but a refusal to allow the Bible to speak for itself and an insistence it must speak whatever words we decide.

i tohguht the truth sets free and once we free there is no division .

What does Hebrews 4:12 KJV tell you about Word of God truth?

Also, Jesus the Truth said He came not to send peace into the world but a what?

Peace belongs only to those who stand on the side of truth, not to those on the other side who corrupt it and this world will never know universal peace until Jesus comes back to eradicate the enemies of it

peace not to the world. but surely peace amongsdt the brethren seems there is too much fighitng among those who are trying to follow Christ and some seem to take joy in seeing this.

I just wish Chrisians were known as JEsus said "for the love they have for one another" not for how much they argue and dont agree

That's because "not everyone that saith unto Me Lord Lord shall enter the kingdom of heaven"...

Satan has his agents sprinkled throughout the church as the tares are among the wheat. They continuously sow discord and doubt and false doctrine, and the only way peace could exist among the brethren is if those of us who stand on the firm foundation of Scripture would sit down and shut up instead of working tirelessly to expose these doctrines of devils spread by those whose father is the devil.

sadly all doctirne is based on scripture. only some of it is based on Genesis to Revelation inclusive.

If one verse doesnt agree with a doctrine it is the doctrine that is wrong not the verses that we shoudl ignore

That's why doctrine which stands the test of Biblical scrutiny from Genesis to Revelation is so beautiful...like a fully set anchor in a raging storm which keeps us from being set adrift on a sea of false "Biblical" doctrine.
