Harmony

“He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see and fear the LORD and put their trust in him.” Psalm 40:3 I am sure many of us have witnessed two distinct ways of singing a song and playing an instrument; and one appears to be more of a gift or an acquired gift than the other. There is the soloist and musician who studies the notes and practices methodically until the…

1 Peter 5:8 Be (sober), be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:5:9 Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.

1 Thessalonians 5:6 Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be (sober).5:7 For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night.5:8 But let us, who are of the day, be (sober), putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.

I Corinthians 6:9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,6:10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor (drunkards), nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.6:11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.6:12 All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.

1 Peter 1:13 Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;1:14 As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance:1:15 But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation;1:16 Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.

Ephesians 4:22 That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts;4:23 And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;4:24 And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.4:25 Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another.4:26 Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:4:27 Neither give place to the devil.4:28 Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.4:29 Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.4:30 And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.4:31 Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice:4:32 And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.

1 Peter 4:7 But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore (sober), and watch unto prayer.

James 4:7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.4:8 Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded.4:9 Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness.4:10 Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.

Ten ways to love

trust without wavering (1 corinthians 13:7)

forgive without punishing (colossions 3:13-14)

listen without interupting (proverbs 18)

keep promises (matthew 5:37)

speak without accusing (james 1:19)

be patient in all things (1 corinthians 13:4)

why do we love?

because one day we will look straight into the eyes of jesus christ. he'll take our faces in his nail-scarred hands, and tell us how much he loves us. and all of a sudden the money, popularity, and earthly possesions will mean nothing but lost. on this day, the only thing worthy of his attention will be the way we loved.

Have you kept some of your old habits while living the life of repentance? I ask this because sometimes we find servants in the Church who are perhaps devoted to the service; these people naturally see themselves as not only living the life of repentance, but perhaps even more the life of righteousness. In spite of this, they have habits that resemble the people of the world exactly. Their behaviors are earthly and not spiritual. How did this happen? How did they combine both the service and these old habits? We will give examples.

Before he knew the Lord, a person had been angry. He then repented, but he kept the anger within him. Before repenting and entering the life of serving God, he would get angry, become provoked, raise his voice, curse and quarrel. After he repented, he kept the "Canaanites on the land." He kept those habits with him. You can see him during the service getting enraged and shouting, despite his great responsibility in it. If provoked, he gives orders with a loud voice and kindles the atmosphere with fire. When you rebuke him for his anger, he says to you: "That is holy anger. I am angry for the sake of God and His honor. I am enraged for the sake of correcting the wrong situation, for the sake of the commandments, and so that I can teach others how it should be."

Actually, he is enraged because he is incapable of resisting anger from within himself. This is not a holy anger, because it is against the commandment that says: "Love suffers long and is kind, is not provoked" (I Corinthians 13.4-5). It is against the commandment that says: "The wrath of man does not produce the righteousness of God" (James 1.20). It is also against the commandment that says: "Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor, and evil speaking be put away from you ... and be kind to one another" (Ephesians 4-31-32).

Holy anger should be holy in its means, and not in its goals and objectives alone. Whoever is enraged like this shows that his nerves are not in good order. He offers a bad example, giving a dishonorable appearance to the church service, and shows lack of purity in conduct and in his method of dealing with people. The fact is that this person has kept with him some bad habits and, wishing to bestow upon them a holy veneer, has put those same errors to use within the Church. His repentance and service become a stumbling block, like the person who puts a piece of new cloth onto an old garment (Matthew 9.16). It would have been better for him to leave behind all the old anger with its many manifestations. When he asks, "Should I not defend the truth?" we answer him as follows.

If God wishes to give you a holy anger to defend the truth, then it will be another kind of anger, which is different in substance, image, execution, and expression. It will be a spiritual anger, different from your worldly anger. You will be angry in it and not sin (Psalm 4.5). Abigail defended the truth when she talked to David, but in a kind, wise, and well-mannered way (I Kingdoms 25). The Lord Jesus revealed to the Samaritan woman her sins, but in a spiritual and gentle way (John 4). God's children always express their objection toward sin in a spiritual way, without loudness, noise, or nervousness. All of these matters originate from the remnant of "the Canaanites on the land."

The problem here is that the spiritual measures used are unsound. Those measures which permit this sinful anger and consider it holy for the sake of God, are unsound measures without a doubt. They merely justify the presence of an old sin from which the heart has not been purified yet. It does not agree with the life of repentance, nor with what is suitable for repentance, such as humility and contrition. It can develop and destroy all of a person's spirituality. It would then be as if he had not repented.

Pope Shenouda III

The Power of Forgiveness:

Healing Hearts, Restoring Lives

Introduction: Join us on a profound journey through the transformative power of forgiveness as we explore the profound impact of extending grace and mercy to others. Discover with us the freedom and healing that comes from releasing bitterness and embracing the liberating gift of forgiveness.

Scripture Passage: Colossians 3:13 (NIV) Cross References: Matthew 6:14-15, Ephesians 4:31-32, Luke 23:34

Commentary: In Colossians 3, Paul encourages believers to bear with each other and forgive one another if any of them has a grievance against someone. He emphasizes the importance of forgiveness as an essential aspect of Christian living, mirroring the forgiveness we have received from Christ.

In Matthew 6, Jesus teaches his disciples about forgiveness as part of the Lord's Prayer, emphasizing the reciprocal nature of forgiveness and the importance of forgiving others in order to receive forgiveness from God.

Ephesians 4 admonishes believers to get rid of all bitterness, rage, anger, harsh words, and slander, and to instead be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as God forgave us in Christ.

In Luke 23, even in the midst of his crucifixion, Jesus extends forgiveness to those who crucified him, saying, "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing." His example serves as a powerful reminder of the transformative power of forgiveness.

Application Questions:

How does holding onto unforgiveness affect your relationship with God and others?

In what ways has extending forgiveness brought healing and restoration in your life?

What steps can you take to cultivate a spirit of forgiveness in your heart?

How does the example of Christ's forgiveness inspire you to extend grace and mercy to others?

Prayer: Heavenly Father, grant us the strength and grace to extend forgiveness to those who have wronged us, following the example of your Son, Jesus Christ. Soften our hearts and heal our wounds, that we may experience the freedom and joy that comes from releasing bitterness and embracing forgiveness. Help us to walk in love and reconciliation, as ambassadors of your grace in a broken world. Amen.
