Message Notes:
Isa 1:18-19a (NLT) "Come now, let's settle this," says the Lord. "Though your sins are like scarlet, I will make them as white as snow. Though they are red like crimson, I will make them as white as wool. If you will only obey me…

Prov 18:19 (NLT) A brother offended is harder to win than a strong city.
Offenses Done to Us

 Falsely accused
 Rejected
 Abused
 Humiliated
Heb 2:17-18 (MSG) That's why he had to enter into every detail of human life. Then, when he came before God as high priest to get rid of the people's sins, he would have already experienced it all himself — all the pain, all the testing — and would be able to help where help was needed.
1 Peter 4:1 (NLT) So then, since Christ suffered physical pain, you must arm yourselves with the same attitude he had, and be ready to suffer, too.
Luke 23:24 (NLT) Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they don’t know what they are doing.”

Rom 3:23-24 (NLT) For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God's glorious standard.
Matt 10:8 (NLT) Give as freely as you have received!
2. Refocus on the real enemy.
Eph 6:12 (NLT) For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places.
3. Don’t waste a hurt.
Gen 50:19-20 (NLT) But Joseph replied, "Don't be afraid of me. Am I God, that I can punish you? You intended to harm me, but God intended it all for good. He brought me to this position so I could save the lives of many people.
2 Cor 1:3-4 (NLT) All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. God is our merciful Father and the source of all comfort. He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When they are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort God has given us.
