The old wineskins are not evil or bad; they can only receive oil and water, and not new wine. The new wineskins can receive oil, water, old wines and new wines. The time of reformation of all things has begun and the old wineskins have entered in there beginning of their end. The old must die in order for the new to live.
What the old wineskins cannot do, that the real new wineskins should do.
· The old wineskins cannot have Biblical unity among them each other.
· The old wineskins cannot have unity with the new wineskins.
· The old wineskins cannot have unity within a city.
· The old wineskins are only pastoral unity that can only go so far.
· The old wineskins are more divided over culture, race, and ethnic then doctrinal issues.
In addition, this reveals that there cannot be true unity, last unity and Biblical unity among old wineskins.
True new wineskins are made to have connections with each other so that true unity, lasting unity, and biblical unity can be promoted in the Church.
Beyond this every born again Christian is a member of the Body of Christ no matter what wineskin you are in, and all wineskins have in common is Jesus Christ is Lord.
