Divisions, How to Heal
1 Corinthians 1:10-16
Now I beseech you, brothers, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing…


When so much had been done at Marburg to effect an agreement between Luther and the Helvetians, Zwingle and his friends, he magnanimously resolved that they should not make larger grants for peace, nor carry away the honour of being more desirous of union than he. He suggested that both "the interested parties" should "cherish more and more a truly Christian charity for one another," and earnestly implore the Lord by His Spirit to confirm them in "the sound doctrine."

(W. Baxendale.)
