Together for...

Mark Dever writing for the 9marks ejournal has written a great article titled 'Together for what?' His main points are;

1 Do we follow commands to purify or to unite?
2 What are some common fights Christians have?
3 What’s the specific purpose for cooperating?
4 What must Christians agree upon? (Essentials)
5 What may Christians disagree about? (Non-essentials)
6 How can Christians disagree well?

This is quite a long read, and to be honest I think I'll need to read it a few more times to take much of it in, but Dever as usual is highly worth paying some attention to.
