Dealing With Criticism First Baptist Church of Titusville FL

    • Christianity

Introduction: All have received criticism. The question is, "How do we handle criticism that is destructive?"
Beware the Seven Last Words of the Church: "We've never done it that way before."
I. Opposition Comes (vs. 1)
Anchored to the Rock, Christ Jesus, but geared to the times best is yet to be!
II. Opposition Builds (vs. 2-3)
The critics failed in their understanding. It was not Nehemiah's wall. It was God's wall.
III. Perfect Posture (vs. 4-5)
There is no time when we are stronger than when we are on our knees before God.
IV. Work Continues (vs. 6-9)
It takes special people with special faith and a special relationship with God to keep picking up one stone after another and keep placing them on the wall-making it better with each one.
