Live in Harmony; Allow Each Other To Make Mistakes!
If you have an unresolved issue (KJV: ought) with anyone, fix it! Why be angry? Why hold grudges? And why not work it out so you can live in harmony with each other? Living in harmony is pleasant; it is precious and refreshing.
Jealous People Cause Trouble, Worry, Hatred, And Bad Outcomes

Sedition: Unity Is Wonderful, But Conflict Is Not Good!
Pressure from changing societal norms has impacted the body of Christ. As society bends to accept trends, so do the people of God. It seems that worldliness is overtaking godliness. Even church leaders are becoming more worldly!

Animosity: The Best Cure For This Hatred Is Love

Endurance: You Can Go Through Whatever You’re Going Through
Whatever obstacles, issues, or situations you encounter, you can go through anything if you apply both patience and endurance. Just keep going. So do not be like the children of Israel; do not complain or give up; go through it.
Personal Responsibility Alert; Warning, You Are in God’s Spotlight!
Continue to accept personal responsibility, because God will hold you accountable for what you do in this life. The Scriptures give an example in Ezekiel 18, it begins with a proverb ‘The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the children’s teeth are set on edge’. The child will no longer be held responsible or accountable for the sins of the parent [see Ezekiel 18:1-4].
Greed: God’s Children Should Not Be Greedy, Are You?

Law to Grace; Not Under Law Now Under Grace
Going from the Law to grace is not easy to understand. The Law required works and strict observance of ceremonies, rituals, and special days. Under grace, you are set free from ceremonies, rituals, and the observance of special days. Jesus fulfilled (completed) the demands (requirements) of the Law and came to give us God’s gift of grace.

True Worship Is Not Tradition, But What Pleases God!
Never did I stop to ask God what He required; I know you are not like that—self-righteous—guy I used to be. My ‘church’ experience was attending every service, three to four times a week, with no such thing as timed services (a set time to end our worship service). We were Acts 2:38 ‘holy-rollers’ and knew we were pleasing God in our manner of worship.
Solve Unanswered Prayers With This Amazing 3-part Bible Study
The experience of unanswered prayers can frustrate even the best Christian. I often think of the relationship I had with my children and the times they asked for something knowing they were disobedient or had repeated a request that I already answered. Yes, you guessed it; I either would not answer or I would tell them to leave my presence.
Spiritual Attitude; The Right Mindset Is “I Can Do”
