Be With Me: 7 Minutes of Biblical Wonder
Religion & Spirituality:Christianity
I HOPE you have CONFLICT Matthew 18:15 (Episode # 184)
IF my brother sins against me?
You must mean WHEN my brother sins against me.
For this is a normal, regular, expected part of the Christian walk.
Wouldn't it be great if God gave us a mechanism, a pathway to FIX this problem when it occurs. And so He does.
We have all heard situations where this mechanism was NOT used: " I was HURT in the Body of Christ...I was wounded when...That person who identified with Christ did..." and now, many years later, there is STILL hurt. Revealingly, there is a good chance that the "non-sinner" in this story turns out to BE THE SINNER, by not doing this process right. That is, if they "took their marbles and went home," and just LEFT the church, there is a good chance that Matthew 18:15 was not obeyed.
So yes, I HOPE YOU HAVE CONFLICT. That means you are in real fellowship. But I hope you do the right thing with it. Listen and hear how you GAIN A BROTHER or SISTER.
