The Level Of Our Obedience Is Most

The Person Who Is Living By Grace Sees This Vast Contrast Between His Own Sins Against God And The Offenses Of Others Against Him. He Forgives Others Because He Himself Has Been So Graciously Forgiven. He Realizes That, By Receiving God’s Forgiveness Through Christ, He Has Forfeited The Right To Be Offended When Others Hurt Him.

God In His Infinite Wisdom Knows Exactly What Adversity We Need To Grow More And More Into The Likeness Of His Son. He Not Only Knows What We Need But When We Need It And How Best To Bring It To Pass In Out Lives. He Is The Perfect Teacher Or Coach. His Discipline Is Always Exactly Suited For Our Needs. He Never Overtrains By Allowing Too Much Adversity Into Our Lives.

Biblical Love Is Not Emotions Or Feelings, But Attitudes And Actions That Seek The Best Interests Of The Other Person, Regardless Of How We Feel Toward Him.

The Purpose Of God's Discipline Is Not To Punish Us But To Transform Us.

Gentleness Is An Active Trait, Describing The Manner In Which We Should Treat Others. Meekness Is A Passive Trait, Describing The Proper Christian Response When Others Mistreat Us.
