How to Fight Like a Christian

Matthew 18:15-20

Theme: Jesus gives a plan for settling conflict in the church.

God is in Control

Romans 11:1-2a, 29-32

Theme: Though brokenness remains, we can trust in God’s mission of restoration.

For the gifts and calling of God are irrevocable. Just as you were once disobedient to God but now have received mercy because of their disobedience, so they have now been disobedient in order that, by the mercy shown to you, they too may now receive mercy. For God has imprisoned all in disobedience so that he may be merciful to all. (Romans 11:29-32)

The End of the Law

For one believes with the heart and so is justified, and one confesses with the mouth and so is saved. (Romans 10:10)

They are Israelites, and to them belong the adoption, the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, the worship, and the promises; to them belong the patriarchs, and from them, according to the flesh, comes the Messiah, who is over all, God blessed forever. Amen. (Romans 9:4-5)
