Misreading John 15 Branches In New Testament Debate
A historical excerpt argues against the idea of religious sects as branches in John 15 5 6. It contends the branches refer to individuals abiding in Christ not to churches or denominations and warns against perverting scriptural language.
Unity in Christ Like a Vine and Its Branches
The writer laments sectarian division among Christians and defends the parable of the vine from John fifteen. He argues opponents distort Christ language to push division, attributing the misreading to sentimentality and prejudice rather than scripture understanding.
