Uniting The Body Of Christ

Division in the Body of Christ can be attributed to a lot of things. But one major factor that I think has compounded this is the process of Discipleship.

The place of adequate discipleship is missing. Some of us might not even have heard of discipleship as being integral to Christianity.
Jesus Christ didn't call Christians, He called Disciples and made than to become Christ-like over a period of time.

Another root cause of this division which is some how associated with discipleship is the adequate knowledge of Trinity with regard to the person of the Holy Spirit.

Unfortunately most Christians have not been baptised in the Holy Spirit and hence do not have a daily relationship with Him.
Without the Holy Spirit, we can never be One because the Holy Spirit is not an author of confusion, What He says to One, He says to All.
Wherever He seems contradictory, its simply a matter of maturity.

Third part is Vanity. Human beings are naturally Money and Power driven. We tend to want attention and are also self centered.
This does not automatically disappear when we become New Creation. If one doesn't take care He starts to think he's more anointed than his superiors and eventually, will feel caged and want to break out. And the devil knows how to manipulate such by sending people to heap praises and flattery on him or her. This is the major cause of innumerable denominations.

Finally, I believe Christianity was never supposed to be One denomination per se because even Apostles Peter and Paul were called to different missions, although the same purpose.
There were occasions when they argued about doctrinal differences too. Galatians 2.

In essence, the division in the Body of Christ can be attributed to a lot of factors some human factors and some inspired by the Holy Spirit.
The most important thing for us to know is that we are One. Anyone who calls Jesus Christ Lord and Son of God is a Christian.
We should stop seeing ourselves as denominations but one Body of Christ under God and inspiration of the Holy Spirit.

All we have to do is Unite in Faith, in Word and in Spirit to operate in Oneness of the Mind of Christ.
I know God is working that out already.
Different Church overseers are beginning to do things together in the interest of the Body of Christ and even submit to one another's authority.

And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ;

that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting, but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head—Christ— from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love.
Ephesians 4:11-16
