Put on your armor

God requires us to be merciful as He has been merciful to us, and to forgive as He has forgiven us. The following are steps to forgiving from our hearts.

We cannot make others what we want them to be, and they cannot keep us from being the person God created us to be. What we have freely received from God, we freely extend to others.

It’s very easy to get down on ourselves—especially when you fail or make a mistake. It’s easy to believe that God did not design us the way we should’ve been, or He made a mistake. But God knew exactly what He was doing when He created you.

We glorify God by making ourselves known as Spirit-filled believers who give thanks to God always and for everything in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Church discipline is a process described in Matthew 18:15-20 as a progression from personal confrontation to a small group confrontation to church-wide awareness. Even though it may seem painful, the goals of church discipline are godly and good.
