This Sunday’s Message: Criticism and the Cross
Scripture:
Instruct a wise man and he will be wiser still; teach a righteous man and he will add to his learning (Prov. 9:9).
The way of a fool seems right to him, but a wise man listens to advice (Prov. 12:15).
Pride only breeds quarrels, but wisdom is found in those who take advice
(Prov. 13:10).
He who ignores discipline despises himself, but whoever heeds correction gains understanding (Prov. 15:32).
A rebuke impresses a man of discernment more than a hundred lashes a fool (Prov. 17:10).
Purpose:To teach believers to overcome their natural tendency to resist correction and instead to learn to welcome criticism as a blessing from God and a means of personal growth.
Key Principle from Sunday night Small Group Study #5: Constructive correction is a sign of genuine love.
