It looks like this:
10: Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment. 1 Cor. 1:10
This is Gods will. Just because we are not there is no exuse. We must press on into all truth.
Yeshua said:
13: Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. John 14:13
The Spirit strives to guide men into all the truth.
The Devil has the Church believing truth is not important. That Gods ok with all our different views and opinions.
However the Apostle John saw it much differently.
3: For I rejoiced greatly, when the brethren came and testified of the truth that is in thee, even as thou walkest in the truth.
4: I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth.
Our faith should tell us there IS such a thing as coming into the full truth. And that its possible for it to happen to any spirit filled believer.

Have you or anyone you know arrived there yet? If not, when do you think you might? That is the original question of this thread.
