We are all one in Jesus Christ but different in Jesus Christ

Listened to Rev.Vinod Victor, Vicar, CSI Cathedral Church, Trivandrum on 20.01.2013 inviting members of CSI Christ Church, Trivandrum to the Trivandrum Convention of CSI South Kerala Diocese. There was a poignant statement. "When we were children we had a United Sunday School where children from all denominations came together. Today that unity is no longer visible. Rev.Jacob Verghis and Rev. K K Koshy were our teachers. We were very happy that they were teaching us excellent values. We were shocked to learn later in life that they were different and had belonged to another diocese." Yes, the bane of Christianity has been the man made divisions. The divisiveness nurtured carefully by the desire of those who matter to seek their own agenda and their own gains has managed to keep Christians divided through ages. It will be apt to say that they have managed to keep Jesus Christ and the values He had taught out of the purview of Christians and Christianity. They teach us , "We are all one in Jesus Christ, but different in Jesus Christ." This is the riddle Christians will have to take head on, if they really wish to be true followers of Jesus Christ.
