But now comes the crunch:
What about those things they agreed to agree on even though they did not agree?
"The solution to these problems will nevertheless require that all sides give up a certain number of old familiar customs, so as to make possible not just coexistence with tolerance and much indifference but a true unity....
it refers to mutual concessions which would make the coexistence of partner churches in unity and diversity more fruitful to all and which would enable their service to the world." p. 52
I have seen this a lot. It is also inside the SDA church in a big way. Sad, but true.
