if ye are indeed bornagain, and by your mouth have given your lives to Christ, let us all live like family. families have misunderstandings indeed but they do not quarrel, or are rude. they rather Clothe a person rather than have them naked, there are words here we throw at each other that are highly unnecessary and that try to point out error in people not to help them, but that we may be proved ""BETTER"" than them. might not be the intent, but at times that is what it shows.
the word says LOVE covers a multitude of sins, indeed if we make a brother continue to sin by our words, what benefit is there? is it all about speaking the TRUTH? or speaking the TRUTH IN LOVE. i had said this once, let me repeat, i understand one thing that we all have been in different backgrounds, different churches, different families, but i also know that if we yield to what the Spirit of GOD commands, there would not be any quarrel.
JESUS commanded us to love one another as HE loved us. we should do the very same.
i do not know if that makes any sense to yall, and please do not misinterpret what i said, and if i have angered someone by the words i have uttered to them i apologize. but let us all try our best to truly live life IN PEACE. the things we face from gentiles and the constant attacks from the world are sufficient, we should be able to find refuge amongst brethren here, to be able to discuss matters without arguments, if a person does not understand you or does not want to understand. dont force it on them, just pray for them. the fruit of righteousness is sown IN PEACE for them that make PEACE, it is not sown in discord, but in PEACE. not sown in arguments but in discussion that are full of understanding, always asking GOD to control the words the things that come out of our hearts.
GOD bless you all. it is not about knowledge it is about LOVE using that knowledge to edify, and at time reproof, knowledge without love, brings in pride. It is not about titleship, that i am this and that, we are all Children to our Heavenly FATHER, so there should not be any levels, bu the very greatest amongst us should be the least. the master to be the servant, and GOD exalts us, we do not exalt ourselves.
