AMPLIFIED 2015 | James 3:2 For we all stumble and sin in many ways.

(Proverbs 9:8 KJV) I have written something to the church, but Diotrephes, who likes to put himself first, does not acknowledge our authority. So if I come, I will bring up what he is doing, talking wicked nonsense against us. (3 John 1:9-10a ESV) :-) Actually, there's a balance in all of this... I think we both understand that. Let's help one another to not shift too far in either extreme! |
