When Division Becomes a Sin

Some people divide a church from the pulpit. Others do it in the parking lot. Pride calls itself discernment. Gossip calls itself a prayer request. Personal ambition calls itself a burden for the church. In this episode of Altars & Ashes, Austin Tucker, B.D. Fleming, and Robbie Stringer examine what Scripture says about those who sow discord, gather factions, and draw disciples after themselves. From Korah’s rebellion to Diotrephes’ hunger for preeminence, we consider how division takes root and what faithful Christians must do when it does. But biblical unity requires truth. Honest concerns deserve a hearing, leaders remain accountable to Scripture, and confronting false teaching can protect the fellowship of the church. Paul’s confrontation of Peter shows why keeping quiet isn’t always keeping the peace. We discuss refusing gossip, receiving correction, pursuing restoration, and protecting the flock when persistent division demands discipline. Christ purchased His church with His blood. You do not get to tear apart what Christ died to gather. Get full access to Dust & Glory Media at dustandglorymedia.substack.com/subscribe
