...Bishop Shines uses Jeremiah 5:1, 30-31, and 2 Peter 2:15-16 to discuss the Apostate Church. Apostasy begins in the house of God, where believers turn away from the things of truth.

...Bishop Shines uses Ephesians 3:16-21 to conclude the discussion on overcoming offense. When an offense occurs, go directly to the person to discuss it. If they do not listen, take one or two others with you to resolve it. If you have done that and they still do not listen, discuss it with the church leadership. Finally, if all of that doesn’t work, begin to witness to them. Diminishing offense means walking in God’s way, not yours, and letting go.
