Be Reconciled To Others

Matthew 5:23-24

Jeff M Newman

Oct 21, 2023

Matthew 5:23-24 (NIV) “Therefore, if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother or sister has something against you, leave your gift there in front of the altar. First go and be reconciled to them; then come and offer your gift.

Having healthy relationships with others is extremely important to Jesus. He wants us to address any grievances or conflicts we have with others before we come to worship Him.

Jesus calls us to be peacemakers and seek unity in the body of Christ.

He knows that unresolved conflict can hinder our worship and fellowship with God and others. If you have any conflict with other believers, go and reconcile with them. ~ Jeff M Newman
