We need to study and discuss biblical teaching on the subject of division. It is certainly true that God hates division and those who cause division are condemned in the Bible (Proverbs 6:16-19). But is division always wrong? Will \"the spirit of Christ\" always prevent division, no matter what the issue? Or are there times when division is necessary? If so, how can that be determined and how can one know if he is the cause or the victim of division?
