I've always wondered:
When two Christians argue and disagree, even when a wrong is committed, who does God side with?
God spoke to me yesterday while on the Harley concerning this... pretty cool finding here:
1. One who seeks Peace: Matthew 5:9
Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God.
2. One who is quick to Forgive: Colossians 3:13
Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.
3. One who doesn't harbor bitterness in anyway at all whatsoever: Ephesians 4:31
Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice.
God stands on the side of the one who controls his or her tongue and lays down all personal agenda's just to see who God is and how He will lead us without restraint of our own hang ups and short comings.
They are all intertwined, aren't they. If you are harboring bitterness, then you aren't actively seeking peace and you probably haven't forgiven.
