When the wheat sprouted and formed heads, then the weeds also appeared. But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and went away. Hear His parable of the weeds: "The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field. In the meantime, scripture provides a sharp edge that divides truth from error and divides those who promote truth from those who promote heresy. Jesus will eventually bring unity to His church (according His prayer in John 17), but only after all the divisions are completed. The sheep recognize the voice of the Good Shepherd and follow closely. This is how we can discern His sheep from the devil's goats. Either you totally believe in Christ and the Word of God and trustingly submit to His demands (all made in love, to protect our bodies and souls) or you are not His. This is because it is all or nothing with Christ. For I have come to turn 'a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law- a man's enemies will be the members of his own household.'"Īnd you can be quite sure that if Christ deliberately uses His words to bring division to families, He also brings schisms to churches. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. 34-36) where Jesus quotes the prophecy in Micah 7:6 about His messianic role: "Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to the dividing of soul and spirit, joints and marrow it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart." With these references in mind which compare God's Word with a sword, now read Matthew 10 (vs. Here is some of what the scriptures say in support of this view.įirst recall Paul's reference to "the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God" in Ephesians 6 and note Hebrews 4:12: "For the word of God is living and active.
God sometimes spreads the gospel in a process that reminds me of how an amoeba procreates - by division. I once read where a liberal Anglican bishop repeated an old Roman Catholic maxim, calling schism "the worst of sins." The worst of sins? Although in general, schism is not desirable (unity is an important communal virtue in the Church), sometimes the divisions are not sin at all but are instead the will of God. It has been heard a number of times from liberal bishops in the Anglican Communion (especially in the Episcopal Church) that schism is worse than heresy. So when our church sides with the world against the Word of God, what should we do? And as Paul made clear in Ephesians 6, we are engaged in spiritual warfare. James told us not to be friends with world because that would make us enemies of God (James 4:4). Jesus taught that we could not serve two masters and He repeatedly said that the world would hate us (e.g., Matt 10:22, 24:9 Luke 21:17 John 15: 18-19, 17:4). Because it is led by the great deceiver, the world will cleverly attempt to lull us to sleep or to fool us into going along with its program. And when the world does not appear hostile and tries to befriend us, this is exactly the time when it is most dangerous. 2:6), we certainly must deal with a hostile world which is constantly in our face. Although we are spiritually "seated with Him in the heavenly realms" (Eph. This truth generalizes to all true believers today. Jesus said that His disciples are in the world but, like Him, are not "of" the world.
