One way baptism becomes a source of division, is when preachers emphasize it so much that they neglect the condition of the heart. It leads to people being baptized for the wrong reasons.

How horrible would that be? How humiliating would that be?

[A Christmas Poem]
The King of Kings, the Lord of Lords
Came to earth for you and me.
The salvation I could not afford

And live in the victory won!
I often lose sight
