“If {anyone suffers} as a Christian, he is not to be ashamed, but is to glorify God in this name.” (I Peter 4:16)
We are simply Christians: no more, no less. That’s what Jesus wants us
to be. Wouldn’t you agree? Have you noticed that churches seem to have
a hard time deciding to be content to be just churches? Christians need
to be content to be Christians and churches need to be content to be churches. What does the Bible actually teach us?
Most are unaware that the modern series of divisions that we call
denominationalism is actually addressed (in principle) by the Bible.
“Now I exhort you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that
you all agree and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be made complete in the same mind and in the same judgment.” (I Corinthians 1:10)
