God is the wellspring of unity and peace, yet there exists a distinctive sort of division that originates primarily from Him. This godly division results inexorably from His judgment, often separating His seemingly unified people into two groups based on their level of commitment to Him. In this act, He treats each group differently, blessing one and cursing the other. Examples of this divine division are evident in various accounts. In Matthew 24 and 25, Christ speaks of judgment resulting in a fifty-fifty split among God's servants, where one is found faithful and blessed, while the other is deemed wicked and cursed. Similarly, in the Parable of the Ten Virgins, five are wise and ready for the bridegroom, while five are foolish and shut out. The Parable of the Talents further illustrates this division, distinguishing between those who grow their responsibilities and those who refuse. In the Old Testament, the vision of the two baskets of figs in Jeremiah 24 portrays God apportioning His people Judah into two groups, one with good figs and the other with bad, judged in opposite ways. Across these instances, a common pattern emerges: God evaluates a superficially unified group, detects an essential disunion in commitment, and divides them, often with an element of surprise or unexpected lines of division. His judgment reconfigures along lines unfamiliar to human expectation, consistently revealing that His act of division aligns with His purpose to distinguish the approved from the unfaithful.
