**Blainer) BY your reasoning, any division then is of the
devil--including that caused by the Bible. But DaveM says that Christ
came to set men against one another, that he deliberately intended for
contention and division to occur. So this was of the devil, too,
according to your reasoning here. Besides, the BoM's plainess has caused
far less division than the nebulousness of the Bible. There are
literally hundreds of "BIBLE-ONLY" Christian sects. There are not more
than three ot four Mormon divisions, all of which can be explained by
jealousy, envy, desire to dominate, not doctrinal differences. In
fact, I don't know of any doctrinal differences among believers in the
BoM. How do you explain that?
