Unity
Ah! Christians, God loses much, and you lose much, and Satan gains much by this, that you do not, will not, walk lovingly together so far as your ways lie together. It is your sin and shame that you do not, that you will not, pray together, and hear together, and confer together, and mourn together, because that in some far lesser things you are not agreed together.
