Sisters. Fire away!

The Local Church turns believers into ones who speak harshly, think cruelly, and are hardened in heart towards fellow saints in Christ our Lord. The only thing Rons' speaking was lacking was truth, love, and edification of the body in Christ. Not too bad when I consider my own failures alongside theirs. I am not innocent of totally failing in what the Lord laid before us, the Christian commission.....love being the greatest. But I have to agree with Nell. Humble yourself before those you trespass against. Seek forgiveness in true repentance. I think that is what Paul was talking about, Christ being magnified in his (and our) weakness. The Lords' humility and love would be on display, in the saints who could confess, ''I was wrong''.
