Your speaking is better than mine on this. I was hasty and not clear. I meant "making an issue of denominationalism" is a red herring used to divide. Requiring a name (my group's, natch) in order to fellowship, or decrying names, makes us swerve from the target, which is to believe into Jesus Christ. Going on means not getting tangled in names, either pro or con. When I believed, names was not an issue, believing in Jesus was a BIG issue. It was huge, it was transfer from darkness to light, from death to life eternal. I don't want to get hung up on names. Jesus was the name for me.
