Can Christ's Body be One?

If you look around you, you'll see a church fractured into countless denominations and factions. Yet this is not the will of God. Jesus prayed, "Father, make them one as We are One, that the world may know that You have sent Me."

Can we be one as God is One? How?

    Every single person who has been born from above via the anointing of the Holy Spirit becomes part of Christ's mystical 'body', the Church. There is no denomination with him! It's only us who have hang-ups about that!

    The Lord knows all those who are his, and they are one in Christ by abiding in him, as Jesus said. He is the vine and we are the branches and if we abide in him we bear fruit to God's glory.

    The church is not fractured. It is one. There are many denominations, but only one church. The denominations teach something other than what is exampled in Acts and the Epistles. There is only one.

    So God came onto earth as his alter ego "jesus christ" his own son, so he can effing torture himself to near death so he could forgive himself and mankind's sin?????? What the hell kind of logic is that??? Why couldn't God just forgive ???? And you dumb Christian maniacs going around asking stupid questions when your dumb logic is beyond belief. Would I have to torture myself in order to forgive my own son ? What is that ?

    Not all would be one becuase not all are right, some of them are right and teaches Bible doctrine while others make fake stories to lure in victims finding truth.
