If you are any kind of "ist" or "ite," drop it. If you belong to anything at all that is not approvingly mentioned and described in the New Testament, forsake it. If you are a member of the "Christian Church," quit it. If you belong to the "church of Christ" in any restricted, sectarian sense, get out of it. Identify yourself with God, with Christ, with the Bible. Be just one of God's people, a member of Christ's church, God's church, in the sense the New Testament uses that word, and you shall be guiltless of all factionism.
