Can't think of a title

[IDon'tKnow]

Hello
I'm not certain whether I'm likely to use this blog or what for but regardless. I recently started to consider these verses

Mark 3:23-27. ²³ So He called them to Himself and said to them in parables: “How can Satan cast out Satan? ²⁴ If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. ²⁵ And if a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand. ²⁶ And if Satan has risen up against himself, and is divided, he cannot stand, but has an end. ²⁷ No one can enter a strong man’s house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man. And then he will plunder his house

NKJV

What struck me was the fact that Satan and his kingdom is one. My natural concept from being in the LC is that when Satan rebelled against God thus entering into division thus he should have divided and divided and divided, Yet here we are are now at least 5000 years after Satan's initial rebellion (could be billions of years for all I know), and he and his rebellion is still one. I think that this should show us that oneness isn't necessarily something of God, Satan and his kingdom also have there own oneness, This is almost certainly a different sort of oneness to God's but it is a oneness all the same.
Further in this vane is

Genesis 11:4-7 ⁴ And they said, “Come, let us build ourselves a city, and a tower whose top is in the heavens; let us make a name for ourselves, lest we be scattered abroad over the face of the whole earth.”
⁵ But the LORD came down to see the city and the tower which the sons of men had built. ⁶ And the LORD said, “Indeed the people are one and they all have one language, and this is what they begin to do; now nothing that they propose to do will be withheld from them. ⁷ Come, let Us go down and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech.”

NKJV

here we notice that all the people in there rebellion against God were one to build a great structure, and this great structure was even to be the source of there oneness, but the Lord came in to divide them.
Lastly I looked at the case of Jeroboam's dividing to take ten of the twelve tribes of Israel. This is of particular interest to me because recently this was used as an example for why it is never okay to divide, It's leading to the golden calves, and the different places of worship, and whatnot. This always bothered me at the time because this interpretation always ignored the very important fact that whatever else happened Jeroboam had been made king of those ten tribes by God and it was His will that he divide

1 King 11:29-33 ²⁹ Now it happened at that time, when Jeroboam went out of Jerusalem, that the prophet Ahijah the Shilonite met him on the way; and he had clothed himself with a new garment, and the two were alone in the field. ³⁰ Then Ahijah took hold of the new garment that was on him, and tore it into twelve pieces. ³¹ And he said to Jeroboam, “Take for yourself ten pieces, for thus says the LORD, the God of Israel: ‘Behold, I will tear the kingdom out of the hand of Solomon and will give ten tribes to you ³² (but he shall have one tribe for the sake of My servant David, and for the sake of Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel), ³³ because they have^{a]" class="footnote">[a]} forsaken Me, and worshiped Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, Chemosh the god of the Moabites, and Milcom the god of the people of Ammon, and have not walked in My ways to do what is right in My eyes and keep My statutes and My judgments, as did his father David, 12:22-24 ²² But the word of God came to Shemaiah the man of God, saying, ²³ “Speak to Rehoboam the son of Solomon, king of Judah, to all the house of Judah and Benjamin, and to the rest of the people, saying, ²⁴ ‘Thus says the LORD: “You shall not go up nor fight against your brethren the children of Israel. Let every man return to his house, for this thing is from Me.”’” Therefore they obeyed the word of the LORD, and turned back, according to the word of the LORD.

NKJV

. Jeroboam's sin wasn't division, it was Idolatry. Although it can be noted that the cause of his idolatry was that he feared that if the people remained in fellowship with the rest of God's people they would return to Rehoboam

1 Kings 12:26-27. ²⁶ And Jeroboam said in his heart, “Now the kingdom may return to the house of David: ²⁷ If these people go up to offer sacrifices in the house of the LORD at Jerusalem, then the heart of this people will turn back to their lord, Rehoboam king of Judah, and they will kill me and go back to Rehoboam king of Judah.”

NKJV

Keeping in mind that it was God's will originally that Jeroboam divide from Rehoboam and he was promised that his kingdom would be secured as long as he obeyed His commandments, I think this should be more naturally interpreted that the sin here was not the division itself but the cutting off of fellowship with those whom were no longer under the same king.
The point of this is that when we see oneness we should not automatically assume that it is of God. Furthermore when we see division we should not automatically assume that it is of Satan. We need to realise that the important thing is not the oneness itself but who we are one with.
