Unity sounds great, until it turns into Uniformity. In this Podcast episode of The Smith and Rowland Show, Jeff Rowland and Alan Smith break down the difference, then apply it to a growing ecumenical push where "unity" gets treated as the highest virtue.
First, they react to a covenant between church leaders and the claim that every division is a sin. Next, they compare that claim to what Scripture actually teaches, because some divisions are commanded and some convictions can't be traded away. Along the way, they talk about where real Christian Unity starts (the blood of Christ), why signed documents don't create spiritual agreement, and how "unity" can get used as pressure to compromise on salvation and the gospel.
If you care about Bible authority, discernment, and the line between cooperation and compromise, this episode lays it out plainly.
