Sowing Discord
Contributed by James Dina on Jul 26, 2021 (message contributor)
Summary: Sowing discord among brethren is an abomination in the eyes of the Lord. Considering yourself better than others fosters division but considering others better than yourself fosters unity. Watch out for those who cause divisions and avoid them. Love binds us, discord separates us.
One little grain of sand cannot do much by itself. Yet, when it stands together with other grains of sand, they can hold back the ocean (Jeremiah 5:22). God’s people can likewise accomplish much more work for Him when they are united together.
“Endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.” (Ephesians 4:3)
Love binds us, discord separates us. God hates those who sow discord. God’s people are peaceable.
“Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.” (Matthew 5:9)
