As funny as it sounds, I think the reason is love. We all wish to share the love Christ has given to us with our brothers and sisters and help them to see His light in the same fullness as He has shown it to us. The problem is that love so easily turns to hate and resentment as we each seek to defend His Truth from what we see as its debasement. Hell's greatest victory might well have been scattering Christ's followers and using their love of Christ to turn them against one another. I truly long for the day when all of Christ's followers will be free from denomination.

>>Yes, when Protestant sectarians give up their pride and return to the bonds of the One Holy Catholic Apostolic Church.
Sectarianism is a sin, yet it wasn't the Catholics who created 10s of thousands of denominations, each claiming to be faithful to the Bible alone. Lutherans, Calvinists, Arminians, Liberal Protestants, etc.
>>If there is one Holy Spirit, One God, then there must be one truth. Realizing that led me away from the mess that is Protestantism. I have no regrets about leaving Protestantism behind me.
