Psalm 139:14 Josh Blackmer Palm Beach Lakes church of Christ

Psalm 139:13 –16  God knows us each individually. (Matthew 6:24-34)  God knows our mental and physical capacity.  We can take great comfort in knowing that God understands who we are.

1Corinthians 12:14 – 27  The body is a collective of individuals. (14, 19-20, 27)  God has organized the body. (18,24)  Everyone has a role. (15-17, 21-22)  God gave honor to every part so that we are all equal. (23-25)  We should all care for each other. (25-26)

Ephesians 4:15-16  With truth and love we grow in all accepts to be like Christ. (15)  When each part is working properly the body grows and is edified. (16)

What happens when you add personality? Acts 15:36-40

What can we learn from this? Spiritual maturity does not erase personality differences.

What can we learn from this? Personality differences can lead to personality clashes that can cause us to sin.

What can we learn from this? We should not let personality clashes cause us to quit serving the Lord.

Some things to consider during conflict 1)What is the real nature of the difficulty? 2)Is there an important biblical principle at stake or is this a matter of opinion? 3)What godly character qualities can the Lord develop in me through this clash? 4)Would the cause of Christ be furthered or hindered by how I handle this?

What could we learn about ourselves and each other if we knew our personality types?
