One Who Sows Discord

One Who Sows Discord Among Brothers – Protecting the Unity Where God Commands Blessing Kingdom Now with Dr. John Carmichael Why does the list of the seven things God hates end with discord? In this powerful message from Proverbs 6, Dr. John Carmichael reveals that the enemy’s most effective strategy against the church is not persecution—it’s division. Persecution often strengthens believers, but discord weakens God’s people from within by damaging the very relationships the Spirit is trying to build. Drawing from the prayer of Jesus in John 17, the warning of Galatians 5, and the sobering example of Absalom in 2 Samuel, this episode exposes how division often spreads quietly—through private conversations, subtle criticism, wounded pride, and unresolved offense. What begins as a whisper can eventually fracture entire communities. But the message is not only a warning—it’s a call to protect what God values most. Scripture declares that where unity exists, God commands His blessing. When believers choose humility, reconciliation, and love over offense and suspicion, the presence of God rests among His people in greater measure. Unity is not uniformity. It is love that is stronger than disagreement. Listen now and discover why protecting unity is essential for revival, mission, and the manifest presence of God in His church.
