Sermons of Grace David Murphy

Pastor/Dr. David Murphy shows that the Bible says it's not always possible to live peaceably with all men, but the believer must try. There are two types of people that Paul is dealing with: the person who wants vengeance and those willing to do anything for peace. We are to leave vengeance to God, but we also must not sacrifice truth for peace. We are to 1-defend truth, 2-be gentle and patient dealing with those who have the Gospel but are unclear about certain fundaments, 3-be careful how we declare truth, 4-don't take rejection personal, and 5-have peace in our heart with God that we did the right thing.

Pastor/Dr. David Murphy shows us how a Christian is supposed to respond and react when evil is done to them. We'll see the Command to "recompense to no man evil for evil," because your response impacts the Gospel. We'll see how this Command differs from the Old Testament Law and how Christ responded in this way. We'll then see that the Counsel to "provide things honest in the sight of all men," means that instead of acting impulsively, we need to respond in a responsible way so as not to give the appearance of evil.
