Unity Quote

To remain divided is sinful! Did not our Lord pray, "that they may be one, even as we are one?" (John 17:22) A chorus of ecumenical voices keep harping the unity tune. What they are saying is, "Christians of all doctrinal shades and beliefs must come together in one visible organization, regardless...Unite, unite!"

Such teaching is false, reckless, and dangerous. Truth alone must determine our alignments. Truth comes before unity. Unity without truth is hazardous. Our Lord's prayer in John 17 must be read in its full context..."Sanctify them through thy truth; thy word is truth."

Charles H. Spurgeon

Do you agree with Spurgeon?

the Truth must come before unity... mos def.

the kkk are united, doesn't mean we're in the wrong for not being united with them

Unity is too vague and broad and can change while the Truth is, was, & will remain the same forever.

Another reason is that people can affect unity but they can not affect the Truth.
