The Living Water: thirsting to resolve conflict

The Living Water: thirsting to resolve conflict by ric gustafson


In his letter to the Corinthians, the Apostle Paul encourages us to work on resolving problems and disagreements. I Corinthians 6:3 says don't you realize that we christians will judge angels, so you should surely be able to resolve ordinary disagreements here on earth. Paul reminds us that we are not helpless that we can depend on the power of the Holy Spirit to help us resolve conflicts.
Paul in II Corinthians 7:5-6 explains that when he arrived in Macedonia, there were many problems and conflicts to confront. He was encouraged and strengthened when his friend Titus came. We can know that when strife and conflict enters our lives, God will come and help us through those difficulties.
