Uniqueness and Unity from God

Uniqueness, this seems to be the greatest indicator of whether something is created by God or just man-machine-made. Of all God's creation, there is harmony, yet each is unique and distinct from each other. You cannot find two trees alike. And by just on our thumb mark that is designed by God we can see God's uniqueness in His creation.

On the other side, things manufactured by men: gadgets, clothing, houses, cars etc. are just cloned from the original. On the large scale, it is easier to reproduce copies of the other, through our modern technology, copying has never been as easy.

But handycrafts, takes much effort and hardwork. That is why only few do. Yet here is where our creativity is much exhibited. And this itself is the characteristic of our Creator.

In the religious world, things are not so different. It is faster to produce echos than witnesses, parrots than disciples. Through religious machines of brainwashing, and manipulation, and the need of man to find acceptance to fellow human beings, controling people have never been as easy. And this is how many religions speads pandemicly.

You wonder where in the Bible did religions in uniforms, not just in clothing but in terminologies base their theology. There is nothing wrong in uniforms, we at times must comply in our workplace and schools, but the problem arises when we try to conform everyone to our own image, tastes and opinions that are less than the emphasis of the Word of God.

The Godhead, Father, Son and the Holy Spirit are distinct from each other, yet One. As our Lord Jesus prayed:

Matthew 6:10 (KJV) Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.

I sometime wonder when will the churches of God will be united. Well, some say, "the church of God has always been united". But that is so neat to be true.
Now, instances in the early church such as contention between Barnabas and Paul and Paul rebuking Peter seems to be an anomaly. Such disagreement and confrontation are foreign to us, or if not sin uncomely to do so. Such is painful and humiliating, not just to the one being confronted but to the confronter as well. That is why we prefer to be quiet in our effort to preserve "unity".

Labels makes not the church nor any other entity united.

But religion that descended from Above is creative, it makes a man a new creation.

The Bible tells us to be of one mind, mouth and spirit.

But our part in the body is unique, not all are eyes, not all are tongues and not all are hands, not all are toes.

1 Corinthians 12:21-30 (KJV)
21 And the eye cannot say unto the hand, I have no need of thee: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.
22 Nay, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary:
23 And those members of the body, which we think to be less honourable, upon these we bestow more abundant honour; and our uncomely parts have more abundant comeliness.
24 For our comely parts have no need: but God hath tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to that part which lacked:

The anti-Christ world has also their own version of unity, unity base upon power: a mandate, compulsion:

Revelation 17:13 (KJV) These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.

But unity from God is base upon love and faith in Christ Jesus.

1 Peter 3:8 (KJV) Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous:

Philippians 1:27 (KJV) ....hat ye stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel;
