2 Как да отговоря на неприятелите

Как да отговоря на неприятелите

Introduction

• What did we talk about last week?  The roots of conflict.  Was it helpful?
• We are going to talk about some very difficult issues thus summer, so I want to encourage you.
• Read Romans 8:1-6
• “So now there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus. 2 And because you belong to him, the power of the life-giving Spirit has freed you from the power of sin that leads to death.”  True freedom is found in Jesus Christ. 
• Many people believe that freedom is found in money.  The fool.  Thinks freedom is found in money.
• Freedom is found in doing whatever I want.  Like being in the mountains without a compass.  You may be “free”, but you really are just lost.  That is dangerous.
•  
• True freedom is allowing the Holy Spirit to change the way we think.  Allowing God to transform us from a slave mentality to a free way of thinking.  Jews in the Wilderness.  Again we are talking about Guvech, a slow process allowing God to make something tasty of our lives.

Responding to Conflict

• Last time we talked about the roots of conflict.  Today we will talk about how to respond to conflict.  You will not agree with me.
• I want to look at how we “normally” respond and how God’s word encourages us to respond.
