The matter of oneness is a heart matter. If a brother or sister desires oneness, there would be no issue of practices, ministries, etc.
When in the local churches there's insistence of using a publication as the means to produce oneness, that produces division and not oneness. As a result the only thing that differentiates local churches from Presbyterians, Baptists, Methodists, etc is their unique doctrine that promotes oneness within their own denomination.
