Personally I believe denomination is a divider and needs to be done away with and the christian people should stand united under God. Where God is so shall there be liberty. |
Cody,
When you call upon the name of the Lord, you are calling upon His authority. That is what that means.
What did Jesus, in His authority as the Christ, tell us to do to have our sins taken away?
Agreed, the very word denomination means a piece or the whole. It by definition is a divider. We are to be united in the Word.
