The future of Christianity lies not in increased division, but, as Moltmann wrote, in the “fellowship of mutual participation and unifying sympathy.”
Or, as an even wiser theologian once said, “Any kingdom divided against itself is laid waste; and any city or house divided against itself shall not stand.”
I conclude with a prayer uttered by this same One, “I ask not only on behalf of these, but also on behalf of those who will believe in me through their word, that they may all be one.”
