How to Address an Offense pt. 3

Jesus knew His church was and would be made up of fallen men. He instructs us how members of the body should behave in order to not cause our brethren to stumble. The blood of our Savior presents us to God as clothed in white. The blood does likewise for His Church.

We are instructed to work out our salvation so we may present the world our best possible testimony. We are also to labor in our churches, ministering to our brethren and removing stumbling blocks. We cannot allow the the sins of our brothers to cause the world to blaspheme the name of God.

We must never forget that we are citizens of Heaven. It is therefore incumbent upon us to lean on the Law of God and forsake our own understanding for we are indeed ambassadors.

Today's message is a continuation of our series on how to address offenses. We will go over the purpose and the process of 'calling out' sins in others in a Godly and loving manner so as not to drive them away, but to drive them closer.
