'''Schism''' in the [[Church]] occurs when members leave the institution without prompting.

Some of the first schisms in the Church include those of the [[Novatianists|Novatianist]], [[Donatism|Donatist]] and [[Nestorianism|Nestorian]] sects. In modern times, schism often occurs due to political differences, which often involves orthodox conservative Christians leaving a perceivably [[Liberalism (theology)|Liberal]] Church. This leads to the abandonment of mainline institutions by conservatives, thus fostering more Theological Liberalism.

There is absolutely no [[Bible|Biblical]] justification for schism and many foundational [[Reformed]] writers railed against it, especially [[Samuel Rutherford]].
