The Hard Work of Unity…………………………………..by Chris McCurley
Mark Twain once said, “What gets us into trouble is not what we don’t know. It’s what we know
for sure that just ain’t so.” For most, the term “sacred cow” has come to represent a stubborn
loyalty to a long-standing tradition or institution that impedes natural processes. For as long as
the church as existed. Differences have existed among the brethren and will continue to exist
among the brethren until the Lord comes back. How we handle these differences is the key to
church unity. A crucial part of the Christian lie is getting along with the brethren.
Unity did not come easily in the Lord’s church of the first century, and it certainly doesn’t come
easily in the Lord’s church today. People fill our auditoriums every Sunday and Wednesday with
all sorts of personalities from a variety of backgrounds with many personal scruples.
There is a wide variation from one brother or sister to another. Some have been Christians for
many years, and others are babes in Christ. Some have deep biblical knowledge, and others
have much to learn. Some tightly cling to certain sacred cows because to let go of them would
violate their conscience. And some see these sacred cows as, perhaps, silly or splitting hairs.
Personal opinions are not always wrong. Everyone holds opinions, and everyone is entitled to do
so. But when it comes to opinions and the Lord’s church, some guidelines have to be set.
Many opinions have absolutely nothing to do with biblical truth. They are personal opinions.
Many who hold these views do so with such deep conviction; they become matters of salvation in
their own minds. When this happens, opinions are forced on others within the congregation.
What was once a personal religious opinion becomes a matter of life and death spiritually and,
in turn, a source of contention among the brethren for all those who refuse to accept the scruple
as absolute truth.
As a minster of the gospel for 14 years, I have come in contact with many individuals who pro-
moted their person sacred cows. Sadly, these sacred cows, became a point of contention as
threatened to divide the congregation. Opinions such as the King James Version of the Bible as
the only valid translation or men wearing a tie and women wearing dresses to worship are just a
few of the issues I have witnessed threaten the unity of the local church. This should never be.
There is nothing inherently wrong with many of the scruples people adhere to; however, we are
wrong to find these opinions on the brethren. (continued next week…)
