sermonette: The Principle of Rebuke

Rebuking With Mercy
Bill Cherry
Given 21-Jun-03; Sermon #618s; 15 minutes

Description: (hide)

Bill Cherry, referring to Luke 17:3, examines the contexts in which rebuke is justified and when it is inappropriate. We must emulate the example of our Elder Brother who never used guile or animosity as he responded to taunts, insults, or persecution. When Jesus did rebuke, he provided helpful instruction.Some may have repented as a result of His thoughtful, tactful rebuke. The spirit of forgiveness should predominate in rebuke, even when it is done with force. Rebuke should have the purpose of communicating, not condemning. Communicate - don't hate.
