Bible Question: What is the biblical response for both parties when one Christian gossips about and backbites another Christian? Please provide scripture with opinions. |
Bible Answer: Greetings Long John! Matthew 18:15-17 deals with how any individual should be approached regardless of the sin or source of conflict. Mt. 18:15 - "'If your brother sins against you, go and show him his fault, just between the two of you. If he listens to you, you have won your brother over. 16 But if he will not listen, take one or two others along, so that ‘every matter may be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.’ 17 If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church; and if he refuses to listen even to the church, treat him as you would a pagan or a tax collector.'" The modern terms for this approach would simply be: 1) Facilitation 2) Mediation 3) Arbitration I hope this helps! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
