Sunday “Study To Show” Report
Strive To No Longer Have Strife!
See to it that you do not strive, because contention cancels out charity, leaving your works to be unprofitable.
2 Timothy 2:23-26 “But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes. And the servant of the Lord must not strive, but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.”
Titus 3:9-11 “But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain. A man that is an heretick after the first and second admonition reject; Knowing that he that is such is subverted, and sinneth, being condemned of himself.”
Proverbs 13:10 “Only by pride cometh contention: but with the well advised is wisdom.”
Proverbs 15:18 “A wrathful man stirreth up strife: but he that is slow to anger appeaseth strife.”
Proverbs 20:3 “It is an honour for a man to cease from strife: but every fool will be meddling.”
Proverbs 22:10 “Cast out the scorner, and contention shall go out; yea, strife and reproach shall cease.”
Proverbs 28:25 “He that is of a proud heart stirreth up strife: but he that putteth his trust in the Lord shall be made fat.”
Proverbs 29:22 “An angry man stirreth up strife, and a furious man aboundeth in transgression.
1 Corinthians 3:3 “For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions. are ye not carnal, and walk as men?”
Philippians 2:3 “Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves. Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others. Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus.”
James 3:16 “For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.”
1 Corinthians 13:4 “Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up”
