Now they are here, and they are the ones who are creating divisions among you. They live by natural instinct because they do not have God's Spirit living in them.
It's difficult to state this, but Godly Christians aren't the only attendees at Sunday church worship services. Some that are sitting in the pews may be sent by the devil with a goal to set up division within the body of Christ. Satan couldn't be more pleased than when people stop praying to God or when Christians stop seeking His will. History teaches us that the battle principal of "divide and conquer, then rule" never achieves permanence because any principle of division couldn't come from our heavenly Father, but rather of the devil. God's principles are based upon unity and love, as He taught in John 17:22, "I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one." Christians everywhere need to come to a realization that petty differences, gossiping and jealousies are really tools that the devil will use to trip believers into sin. Keep your eyes on the prize, stretching to the goals set before your life and keep the body of Christ unified.
