In your article, you say, ” And because peace, unity, and purity are God’s to grant, not ours to create, we must always pursue them in conversation, not compromise.” If all we ever do is have conversation, the issue of peace, unity and purity are purely academic. We must also be willing to change as we hear the voice of God. And any change that occurs will produce accusations from others — “You’ve compromised.”
Apostle John
