What the World Needs Now - Humble Bridge-Builders, Part 1

Living on the Edge with Chip Ingram Daily Podcast

Division, hate, and violence, don’t start with words. They begin in the heart. The disunity we see happening in our country and around the world - in homes, on the streets, and in the media - is ultimately caused by a driving force who’s aim is for that disunity to prevail. Scripture tells us our battle isn’t against flesh and blood. So, how do we become humble bridge-builders in the midst of the conflict? Chip addresses that in this program.

Main Points

Topic #1 - The 6th Commandment

• No murder by violent hands - Matthew 5:21
• No murder by angry hearts or lethal lips - Matthew 5:22

Jesus' application:

• The parable of priority: right relationships trump religious requirements every time.
• The parable of urgency: delayed obedience will result in dire consequences.

Steps to humble bridge-building:

1. Do you have anger, bitterness, or resentment toward anyone, past or present?
2. Have you murdered anyone in your heart or with your lips?
3. Will you confess this sin right now and receive God’s full forgiveness?
4. Can you think of anyone who might feel angry or resentful towards you? Will you commit to make that relationship right “as far as it depends on you”?
5. Will you STOP and thank God for His love and kindness and blessings in your life right now?
