Our conduct reveals our maturity in Christ.

  We're bombarded continuosly with the following scenario.

The Lord has revealed something to you about your church, pastor and or a fellow brethren.

You respond:
A.  You take it to prayer knowing the Lord has entrusted you to intercede on behalf of the situation for the tearing down of strongholds and bring restoration. *This is maturity.

OR

B.  Aha!! "Just as you suspected all along" you knew there was something a miss and you take it upon yourself to expose the situation, person for the good of all. 

We defeat satans attack and destruction of the church and our brethren when we emulate the nature of Jesus: like a lamb, Christ died for sinners; as a priest, He intercedes.
Therefore my brothers and sisters do not do satan's bidding through fault finding and criticism.   To combat this enemy, we must employ the gifts of descernment, intercession, love and heavenly wisdom.  We are to create an atmosphere of grace among us as individuals and between us as churches. Like the Father who has given us life, we must seek to cause all things to work together for good. If one stumbles we must be quick to cover him, without condoning hypocrisy.

Prov. 10:12  Hatred stirs up contentions but love covers all transgressions. 

1 Peter 4:8 above all things have intense and unfailing love for one another, for love covers a multitude of sins forgivenes and disregards the offenses of others.

1 Corinthians  16:14
Let everything you do be done in love (true love to God and man has inspired by God's love for us).

1 Peter 4:8
Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.
