- The Sword of Jesus
Reference: Luke 12:49-56 The struggles over whether or not Biblical authority is determinative for current Christian belief or is only advisory has resulted in splits across many denominations.

Western thought tends to see these two entities as separate, or in the case of materialists, as body without soul. To the latter, soul describes […]
