I now believe that "oneness," practical or otherwise, was never the right goal. It is a misaiming, misused by those who wish to wield power over others. Genuine N.T. oneness rather is an indicator of spiritual health. Mature love, obedience, and humility are some of the necessary ingredients. We thought we were one because we were told so by Lee. We thought we were one because we had the right names. We thought that we alone were really one, but every test that came our way proved otherwise.
