Questions
1. Have you ever been offended?
2. Did you handle that offense well? Could you have handled it better?
Offenses will come, but we shouldnt allow them to take us out of our
position with Christ.
Matthew 18:12-15
12How
think you? If a man have a hundred sheep, and one of them be gone astray, does he
not leave the ninety and nine, and goes into the mountains, and seeks that which has gone
astray? 13 And if so be that he find it, verily I say unto you, he rejoices more of that sheep,
than of the ninety and nine which went not astray. 14 Even so is it not the will of your Father
which is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish. 15 Moreover if your brother
shall trespass against you, go and tell him his fault between you and him alone: if he shall
hear you, you have gained your brother.
Its important to remember that the person that has offended you is NOT
the problem.
Ephesians 6:12
12For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers,
against rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
Its important to remember the spirit behind an action. It will be easier to still love
and forgive the person if you remember who your enemy is and who isnt.
