[FBC] Handling Disagreements in the Body of Christ - 2013.11.10

One of the tricks of the walk of Christians is knowing when to disagree with each other and how. In this week's message, Pastor David Wolf details what the scriptures say about handling disagreements among the Body of Christ.

* Galatians 1:8 - 9 Don't budge on doctrines of salvation. 
Some truths leave no room for accommodation - some things must remain inviolate. 

* Romans 14:5 Some precepts leave room for different interpretation. What do we do when we arrive at different conclusions about less critical issues? "Let every man be satisfied in his own mind." 

In the example of Justin Martyr, we should be patient, winsome, full of grace, slow to judge. "No all pure and pious Christians hold this view."

The problem of Copernicus and the shameful reaction of the church.

We should go to God's word to test our theological and scriptural opinions.

Our attitude toward the person with a contrary view is more important than who's 'right.'
