Fragment

We should trust the Lord to make things plain in His time and seek to go on in happy fellowship with each other and the Lord (see 1 Cor. 16:1212As touching our brother Apollos, I greatly desired him to come unto you with the brethren: but his will was not at all to come at this time; but he will come when he shall have convenient time. (1 Corinthians 16:12)). Of course, we don’t do this to allow moral evil or bad doctrine. But whenever we can, we do it for the respect of the other’s conscience (see Rom. 14). May we each personally take heed to the Apostle’s beseeching and not go on any longer being at odds and of a different mind with our brethren. That cannot be in the Lord!
