hello, somethings that I wanted to share were Romans 7:7-25, sin is sin, there is really no explaination for it , it hurts us as well as those around us. But the thing that I want us to remember is the Cross, sometimes we get so caught up in the way we are hurt by others and the way we want an explaination that we ourselves forget about Christ. I know I didn't get a chance to explain to christ why I put him on that tree, why I sinned, and did he expect a responce from me when he died on that tree? he paid the price for my forgiveness before I was even able to sin.There is another example that I love of someone not explaining anything and they were forgiven. In Matthew 26:50 Jesus calls Judas friend, he called him a friend because he forgave him, he forgave Judas even before he asked for forgiveness, he forgave Judas without saying, look at what you put me through. my last example is 1 Corinthians 13:4 and 5. Love is patient and kind, it does not grow impatient with the beloved, it has compassion, I know that ernie may be hurt but if ernie loves the person as he says he does he would follow suit with the true definition of love, not worldly love but a Godly love. Lastly, love is not self seeking, when we love someone we are not worried about ourselves and how hurt we are and feeling compassion on us but on the beloved and just to add one of my favorite scriptures, 1 peter 4:8. Love eachother deeply for love covers over a multitude of sins, if we are really loving we will be to busy to notice the hurt, Hey christ did it..... I hope this helped!!! |

well, I know that it says that if a brother sins against you to show him his fault (Matthew 18:15-19) and it continues on in ways if the brother continues not to listen, another place where it says something about sinning and how to handle it is in Jude 22-23, as a christian you should try to help your brother, or sister, when they are in sin but you need to show mercy mixed with fear " hating even the clothing stained by corrupted flesh" (jude 23) I hope this sheds some light on your question. |
