Unity vs. Uniformity | May Communion Service
May 4, 2014
Randy McCarthy
Unity vs. Uniformity
In this sermon, Randy refers to John 6 to discuss the differences between unity and uniformity. Unity is good in that it is the uniting of God’s people around certain important truths, most notably the fellowship of the risen Christ. The desire for unity can often devolve into demands for uniformity, however, which is a desire people do things the “same way” – everyone should think and do the same things. While this is good in the area of doctrine, it is often taken too far in the area of practice.
May Communion Service
Randy McCarthy & Allen Daniels
Allen gives an excellent overview of the meaning of the communion service and what the various elements represent. The unleavened bread represents the perfect, sinless body of Christ which was broken for God’s people, and the unleavened wine represents the perfect, sinless blood (life) of Christ which was shed for the redemption of God’s people.
