There appear to be two main reasons. The first reason is that keeping the unity of the Spirit requires humility: it can only be, done "with all lowliness, meekness, long-suffering, bearing with one another 'in love" (Ephesians 4:3). lt is simply much more attractive to the flesh to follow the rule of some human headquarters (whose voice may be heard more easily than the Lords, i.e. without having to wait upon the Lord in dependence upon Him), or to declare one's autonomy in order to be free to act as one pleases.
Habari ya kwanja ni kwa kuchunga umoja wa Roho inayohusu unyenyekevu: Ile inawezekana kufanywa “kwa unyenyekevu wote na upole, kwa uvumilivu, mukichukuliana katika mapendo” (Waefeso 4: 2). Ni jambo kubwa la kupendeza mwili kwa kufwata kanuni ya viongozi chache (sauti yao mara ingine inasikiwa vizuri kuliko sauti ya Bwana maana yake haiwezekani kungojea sauti ya Bwana, maana yake haiwezekani kungojea Bwana) ao kutangaza utegemeo wake (“utawalo” ao “musingi (sheria)” ya mwenyewe “).
