The task of a servant of God is to speak the truth. Having love and compassion when speaking the truth is important, but we must remember the truth is often unpopular.
Living out our faith and speaking the truth in love is not always easy. We are not divisive when we speak truth in love in the church.
The divisive theologian wishes to keep the peace at all times. To steer away from any conflict at all costs. Often the most divisive people in the church are mistaken as peacemakers.
A true Christian peacemaker cares for the truth. To seek peace at all times regardless of truth is not Christian.
