I hope and pray that an eventual reunion as well. As I have offered this prayer intention many times,“One Flock,One Shepperd.” With God all things are possible!
This has been a most enjoyable discussion and I must say I am impressed with the level of diplomacy and religious tolerance. Considering, none of us were responsible for the schizms that exist in the church. (we are just way to young.)
It is good to know that the ‘One Shepherd’ is still leading and guiding His flock and being united as His royal priests, not bowed under the weight of schizms as they exist in denominationalism and religion, not pushed to and fro by every wind of fleshly notion as to what might have been pure scripture, doctrine or authentic orginal church order. Though buffeted by the philosophies of foolish men and woman who attempt to assume the role of leaders of the flock, we forge ahead in the unity that was accomplished by the completed work of His gospel. Out of which His work has achieved in a seperate unity from the world and it’s high criticism and philosophical nothings which will eventually crumble under under the weight of it’s own tryranny and the glorius return of the King of Kings. He sent His Spirit to unify us and so it is with His Spirit that we need to be intimately acquainted and bowed before lest we end up just being pretenders to the crowns for which He has fully paid, which even the 24 elders will cast at His feet, when every knee shall bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father…
