Tim Russell SERMON TITLE: A Right Way and a Wrong Way SERMON THEME: Dealing with Conflict SERMON SERIES: Keep the Faith SERMON TEXT: 2Timothy 2:23-26; Proverbs 26:21; Ephesians 4:1-3, 29 2Timothy 23-26 But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes. 24 And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, 25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; 26 And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will. Proverbs 26: 21 As coals are to burning coals, and wood to fire; so is a contentious man to kindle strife. Ephesians 4:1-3  I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called, 2 With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love; 3 Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. Ephesians 4:29 Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers. * Avoid unnecessary conversations that leads to further conflict… whenever possible (v24a, …the servant of the Lord must not strive) * Be gentle (v24b) * Instead of criticizing, be a teacher (v24c) - People are watching!  Conflict is an opportunity to teach people. * Be patient (v24d) - Be tolerant. * These responses create meekness (v25a) * To the end that God will draw them to repentance so that they might come to know Truth, and thereby escape the snares of Satan (v25b, 26) — — — Listen here using our Subsplash WebShare Player https://subsplash.com/cbcponca/lb/mi/+y9fn687 Listen here on Archive.org https://archive.org/download/041520wedaudio/041520Wed-AUDIO.mp3
