HOW TO DEAL WITH DISPUTABLE MATTERS OF THE CHRISTIAN FAITH: MATTERS PERTAINING TO LIFE AND GODLINESS IN CHRIST JESUS STEAD!\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

“Brethren, if a man be OVERTAKEN IN A FAULT, ye which ARE SPIRITUAL, RESTORE such\u00a0an\u00a0one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted. 2 Bear ye ONE ANOTHER\u2019S\u00a0BURDENS and\u00a0so fulfil the law of Christ. 3 For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he\u00a0deceiveth\u00a0himself. 4 But let every man prove his own work, and then shall he have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another. [5] For every man shall BEAR HIS OWN BURDEN”<\/i>\u00a0Galatians 6:1-5.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In our course to fulfil the cause of grace as\u00a0pertaining to\u00a0doing life and living godly in Christ Jesus, there are certain misnomer that may arise that are more of human creation than are scriptural in context.\u00a0That’s\u00a0the reason Apostle Paul was laying out the scriptural tool to deal with such happenings in\u00a0Galatians 6:1-5.<\/b>\u00a0While\u00a0it’s\u00a0appropriate that\u00a0the individual brethren\u00a0take\u00a0personal responsibility and accountability in the principle of the scriptural context for their own maturity,\u00a0it’s\u00a0of gracious and graceful importance that those who have a more spiritual sensitivity, capacity and capability, bear the burden of their respective weaker brethren burden. It’s vital for the good of the common faith in the grace, that those, who are SPIRITUAL, that is, you who are responsive to the guidance of the Spirit, are to restore such a person in a spirit of gentleness, not with a sense of superiority or self-righteousness, keeping a watchful eye on yourself, so that you are not tempted as well, while you carry one another\u2019s burdens; for in \u00a0this way you will\u00a0fulfill\u00a0the requirements of the law of Christ, that is, the law of love – for by so doing, we’ve fulfilled the law of Christ Jesus in the grace in the faith as it’s written:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“I am giving you a NEW COMMANDMENT, that you LOVE one another. Just as I have LOVED you, so you too are to LOVE one another. [35] By this everyone will know that you are My\u00a0disciples, if\u00a0you have LOVE and UNSELFISH concern for one another”<\/i>\u00a0John 13:34-35\/Amplified.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

So, in relative term, there are certain misnomer that may arise that are more of human creation than are scriptural in context. And some action may create contradictions in the general faith that may affect the individual, local and universal body of Christ Jesus. And the context of contradictory failure is not about what happened, or has happened or is happening but the HOW we go sorting\u00a0an\u00a0answers and solutions to enable us to stay in the freedom wherein Christ has made us free in REDEMPTION, without giving the enemy and cohorts the crafty tool and means they crave after, to shame or destroy the testimony of our faith in Christ Jesus stead.\u00a0It’s\u00a0the\u00a0know-how\u00a0context, that we need to\u00a0address\u00a0and be addressing by and by, in ensuring and assuring all that ARE of God in Christ Jesus, can find hope, love and faith\u00a0in the midst of\u00a0the misnomer in the grace.\u00a0That, to ensure there is an opportunity for access to a wholesome foundation of restoration and freedom in the faith, through the grace of God in Christ Jesus stead. Amen!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“It was for this freedom that Christ set us FREE [COMPLETELY LIBERATING us]; therefore keep STANDING firm and do not be SUBJECT again to a YOKE of slavery [which you once removed] . . . 6 For [if we ARE] in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything, but only FAITH ACTIVATED and EXPRESSED and WORKING through LOVE”<\/i>\u00a0Galatians 5:1, 6\/Amplified.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“Therefore, since we have been JUSTIFIED [that is, ACQUITTED of sin, declared blameless before God] by FAITH, [let us grasp the fact that] we have peace with God [and the joy of reconciliation with Him] through our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed). 2 Through Him we also have ACCESS by FAITH into this [remarkable state of] grace in which we [firmly and safely\u00a0and securely] STAND. Let us rejoice in our hope and the confident assurance of [experiencing and enjoying] the glory of [our great] God [the manifestation of His excellence and power]”<\/i>\u00a0Romans 5:1-2\/Amplified.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Herein are my takes in SCRIPTURAL CONTEXT for the good and goodness on us, and on how to deal and be dealing with MATTERS that are in dispute and contentious in the Christian faith. These set out principles are SCRIPTURALLY healthy, in order to stay SCRIPTURALLY balance in the CONTEXT of disputes, disputed and contentions amongst us in the Faith, if you must avoid errors and the extremely offs, at all ends of the Christian faith as Jesus caution the sectarianism of His days in humanity.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“Jesus answered and said unto them, YE DO ERR [ERRONEOUS, MISTAKENLY], not KNOWING the scriptures, nor the POWER of God”\u00a0<\/i>Matthew 22:29 [Mark 12:24]\/Emphasis Mine.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

And\u00a0I am certainly confident that when you follow the principle\u2019s\u00a0guidance, which I know are of the Holy Spirit, you can RESOLVE without been in extreme disputes and contention in the Christian FAITH. It has SAVED me severally from day zero of giving myself to do life and godly living in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.\u00a0So, when dealing with matters of serious contention and dispute, these are the key\u00a0notes to approach such matters,\u00a0in order to keep your being in Christ Jesus safe in the FAITH,\u00a0without hurting\u00a0yourself or others\u00a0in Christ Jesus stead: Herein are the three basic PRINCIPLES to apply in all situations and circumstances of disputes and contentions:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
