What does the Bible say about those who cause divisions in the church?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible warns against divisive individuals, instructing the church to mark and avoid them to maintain unity in the faith.

In Romans 16:17, Paul advises believers to be vigilant against those who cause divisions contrary to the doctrine they have received. Such individuals often lead others away from the simplicity and truth of the gospel. The call to mark and avoid them signifies the seriousness with which the church must guard its unity and purity. By recognizing and distancing themselves from divisive elements, Christians can protect the fellowship of believers and ensure that the focus remains on the gospel of Christ, fostering a community built upon love and truth.
