This is not only the source of church conflicts, it is the source of conflict in general. What wars would cease if only we had an eternal perspective or God's redemptive work?
"Rather than a blazing reality, heaven feels vague, so we lose our sense of the nearness of eternity and begin protecting our property, reputations, and comfort in the here and now." - Redeeming Church Conflicts
@AlyssaOrange It's an emotional and not a logical response. When you love your team, it feels like a break-up. "I loved you and I want you to love me back." "Did our time together mean nothing?" "Did you not mean it when you said you were happy here?" That's what people are responding to.
