Hindrances to church unity

• IndividualismWe need not all agree, but if we disagree, let us not be disagreeable in our disagreements. – MR DeHaan

• Personal Peace and Affluence

• Small vision

The unity of Christendom is not a luxury, but a necessity. The world will go limping until Christ’s prayer that all may be one is answered. We must

have unity, not at all costs, but at all risks. A unified Church is the only offering we dare present to the coming Christ, for in it alone will He find room to

dwell.

Charles H Brent

Promoting church unity

Together we can:

• Pray.• Care for the needy.

You cannot sift out the poor from the community. The poor are indispensable to the rich. – Henry Beecher

• Fight the enemy.• Deal with crises.• Gather the harvest.

Be united with other Christians. A wall with loose bricks is not good. The bricks must be cemented

together.

Corrie ten Boom
