The greatest danger to the peace of the local church is the tongue, enflamed by our myriad insecurities. We destroy the church because we envy one another. We solve this as we love one another. We love one another as we are more fully persuaded that we are loved of God, as we believe the gospel. The greatest danger to the purity of the church is a love of the world, and its approval. We solve this as we love another as we are more fully persuaded that we are loved of God.
