Rather than teaching denominationalism, the scriptures present one Savior; one way; one faith; and one church; one mind (Matt. 1: 20-23; John 14: 6; Eph. 4: 5; Eph. 4: 4; Phili. 4: 2). Religious division is both sinful and chaotic and God is not the author of confusion (I Cor. 1: 10; I Cor. 14: 33, 40).
