Grace and Wisdom

Lighthouse Church Durban

Jesus calls us to extend grace in the form of forgiveness to those who sin against us.

Jesus also calls us to extend grace in the form of redemptive confrontation:

- to confront privately, to explain the offence

- if this fails, to try again with one or two others

- if this fails, to try again with the voice of the church.

Forgiveness does not make the sin OK - the sin needs to be dealt with so that we can live in freedom.

Matthew 18:32-35, Matthew 6:12, Matthew 18:15-18
