THE BODY OF CHRIST IS NOT DIVIDED!

It is a mistake to think that the body of Christ is divided.  
Christianity is not the body of Christ because it has two
groups of people:   the children of God and the children of
the devil

1.  The children of God:
        "Whosoever is born of God
               DOTH NOT COMMIT SIN..."
                            I Jn 3:9
 
2:  The children of the devil:
        "HE THAT COMMITTETH SIN
               is of the devil ..."
                            I Jn 3:8

"...Whosoever DOETH NOT RIGHTEOUSNESS
                 is not of God ..."
                        I Jn 3:10

Here, in this very same chapter, John defines sin as
transgression of the law:

    "Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law:
         for sin is the transgression of the law."
                       I Jn 3:4 (KJV)

We cannot rightly call Jesus "LORD" and disobey any of
The Ten Commandments.  

    "For whosoever shall keep the whole law,
      and yet offend in ONE POINT, he is guilty of all."
                           James 2:10 (KJV)

The carnal Christians  who call Jesus "LORD"   but  disobey
ONE POINT of the law  (the Sabbath commandment)  
need to hear this warning of Jesus ...
   
"Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,'
            will enter the kingdom of heaven;
        but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven.

    "Many will say to Me on that day, 'Lord, Lord,
          did we not prophesy in Your name,
                and in Your name cast out demons,
                      and in Your name perform many miracles?'

    "And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you;
         depart from Me,
              YOU WHO PRACTICE LAWLESSNESS.'
                     Matt 7:21-23 (NAS)

The seventh day Sabbath was sanctified at Creation by
the Creator.   The Commandment  makes a distinction
between The Creator and the many gods of the heathen.
(Gen 2:2-3 ; Ex 20:8-11;  Jer 10:10-11)

"The Venerable day of the SUN."  is associated with
paganism; while the seventh day Sabbath honors the
God that made the heavens and the earth.

Now, each of us must decide if we want to honor the sun or
the SON!

     and went to make war with the remnant of her seed,
            WHICH KEEP THE COMMANDMENTS OF GOD,
     AND HAVE THE TESTIMONY OF JESUS CHRIST."
                                  Rev 12:17 (KJV)
