The local churches
What are the local churches? They are Christians who have left behind church divisions to stand together in oneness (unity) for the Lord Jesus Christ's testimony. They meet according to ground of oneness. What is ground of oneness (unity)? It is way first churches in New Testament meet together in oneness (unity), with no divisions. In book of Acts, and all of the Epistles in New Testament we see that the Christians at that time meet together in one church in each city. Example, all the Christians in Jerusalem meet together as the church in Jerusalem. All the Christians in the city of Antioch meet together as church in Antioch, all the Christians in the city Ephesus meet together as the church in Ephesus. At that time in New Testament time there were no divided churches but just ONE church in ONE city or town. There were no separate churches inside a city, only one church. All Christians who live in the city or town come together in oneness (unity) not divided.
Today we in the local churches reject all division. We honor Jesus Christ as our only Lord and Savior and meet together on ground of oneness, not on division. We meet follow New Testament pattern of oneness (unity). That pattern is what? One church in one city. Thus in city of Austin, Texas there should only be one church in Austin, or in New York there should only be one church in New York. All Christians must give up different names of churches and come together in joy and oneness (unity) as one church in the city where they live. Jesus our Lord wants all Christians to be oneness (unity) real, give up different names and only meet simple as church in city.
Today, we feel Lord Jesus Christ as Head of His Body, He is calling Deaf to give up different names of churches and meet together with other Christians in city as ONE church. Not Deaf church, not Baptist, not Lutheran, not Presbyterian, not Methodist but as Christians all need to meet together ONE CHURCH.
Deaf Christians need to honor Jesus' Name and not accept different names like Baptist, Methodist, Lutheran, Catholic, Presbyterian, etc... Also should not have "Deaf church" divide name like 'Deaf Light of Life Church' or 'Deaf Maranatha Church'. Church should be one with all Deaf and hearing Christians together one church in each city.
Deaf Christians should not divide into different churches but must come back to ground of oneness (unity) stand together to glorify the Lord Jesus Christ in oneness (unity).

"So, as a prisoner for the Lord, I beg you to live the way God’s people should live, because He chose you to be His. Always be humble and gentle. Be patient and accept each other with love. Do all you can do to keep the oneness (unity) of the Spirit, in the peace that joins us together. There is one Body and one Spirit, and God called you to have one hope. There is one Lord, one faith, and one baptism. There is one God and Father of us all. He is above all of us, through all of us and in all of us." Ephesians 4:1-6
