Yes, it's true that the Lord works all things, including church splits, for our good. However, to say that church splits are His will would be a lie. The Lord's will is that we (His body) be one as He and the Father are one.

In a similar vein, there can be circumstances that justify a divorce. However, divorce is not the Lord's will.

I didn’t say that church splits are the Lord’s will. Everybody in Christ already knows that the LORD has made us all one. Do you really think we need to be told that church splits and divorce are wrong?

True, all are invited through Christ to the Church he founded on the apostles. The ONE, HOLY, CATHOLIC, and APOSTOLIC CHURCH!

Otherwise, aren’t people putting themselves and their judgments ABOVE those of Jesus Christ?
