Never Unity at all Costs

I was actually told one time many years ago, by a retired missionary woman, that we should compromise the truth of Christ for the sake of unity if we have to in order to win converts.

I could not believe what I was hearing. The mentality that we should seek peace at all costs is not at all what Christ taught. His truth and our relationship with Him is far more important than remaining friendly with those who deny His principles.

Luke 12:51-52 "51 Do you think that I have come to bring peace to the earth? No, I tell you, but division. 52 From now on, five in one household will be divided, three against two and two against three.…"

Colossians 2:8
"See to it that no one takes you captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Christ."

Matthew 15:6
"He need not honor his father.’ So for the sake of your tradition you have made void the word of God."

Those who deny the principles of God for the sake of their own traditions are in violation of the Word of God, it is sin.
