Division
When a brother offends us, our response becomes critical to Christ.
There are four responses common to human flesh that we are to guard against with all diligence.
1) */A/ /self-centered response/*: acting babyish;
being consumed with the wrong done; keeping our minds on the personal injury until the whole divisive affair poisons our hearts and minds.
Remember: this is common to human flesh, a tendency among us all.
2) */A withdrawing response/*: avoiding the brother; being apprehensive, perhaps even fearing to face or associate with him;.
3) */A gossiping response/*: a self-justifying sharing; a self-vindicating sharing; a tendency to share hurt and evil and wrong done, to share with close friends in order to picture ourselves as blameless.
4) */A retaliating response/*: becoming embroiled in the divisiveness and wrongdoing ourselves; reacting and lowering ourselves to the level of the wrongdoer; getting back at the wrongdoer.
*Thought 2*.
When a brother offends us, the most important response (after prayer, of course) is to go to the brother alone.
There is great wisdom in this instruction, wisdom that teaches both brothers to subject the flesh and to give prominence to the spirit.
1) *Wisdom for the /offended brother/*.
Human nature tends to react, brood, share the evil, and seek retaliation—whether simply withdrawing or attacking.
Christ demands that we conquer the urges of the flesh to react and that we control the situation through the Spirit.
We are to keep quiet and pray and then go to the brother and discuss the matter, seeking reconciliation.
Simply put, we are to be spiritually minded.
2) *Wisdom for the /offending brother/*.
Human nature avoids and is slow in admitting wrong.
A humble, loving, and caring visit to seek reconciliation is /an encouragement/ for a brother to confess, apologize, and be reconciled.

Reminding the Philippians

People will be less inclined to hear the gospel if we don’t live it
*Hold out the word of life*
Share the gospel
Even if I am executed here and now, I’ll rejoice in being an element in the offering of your faith that you make on Christ’s altar, a part of your rejoicing.
But turnabout’s fair play—you must join me in /my/ rejoicing.
Whatever you do, don’t feel sorry for me.
