Ironing Out Differences


Matthew 18:15-20

 

If your brother has ever done you wrong,
Do not even let it go for that very long;
Go to him in private and make it clear,
The making of his error for him to hear.

If giving his ear you have a brother back,
But if he does not or starts giving flack;
Then return with the witness of another,
Witnessing every word by your brother.

If he still will not submit as you require,
Then take him to church for the inquire;
And if he sill has refused you once again,
Just treat him as you would any heathen.

All you fix on earth also fixed in Heaven,
What you forgive God also has forgiven;
As to what you agree upon here on earth,
Will show in your relationship true worth.

Then anything that you make as a request,
By the Heavenly Father surely been blest;
Wherever two or three come in His name,
So will also be Christ for you to proclaim.
