Listen "Let's heal from church hurt!"
Episode Synopsis
The term "church hurt" is a false accusation of The Bride of Christ. We hurt the Church by claiming church hurt! People hurt people, but Jesus never did. The Church is the living Body of Christ Jesus. We use the word "church" interchangeably with a location and the bride of Christ described in Luke 8:18. So we must be mindful of what comes out of our mouths as Jesus taught us in Matthew 15:11 CSB
It’s not what goes into the mouth that defiles a person, but what comes out of the mouth — this defiles a person.” The adversary is the accuser of the Church... and he has tricked so many into speaking against the Church, some blindly and others willingly.
Scriptures referenced:
EPHESIANS 5:27 – That He might present to Himself the church In all her glory, having no spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that she would be holy and blameless
Luke 18:8 NIV
I tell you, he will see that they get justice and quickly. However, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?”
Matthew 15:10-11 CSB
Summoning the crowd, he told them, “Listen and understand: [11] It’s not what goes into the mouth that defiles a person, but what comes out of the mouth — this defiles a person.”
3 things to do to heal from hurt
1: Have the Holy Ghost boldness to address the one(s) that hurt you in love instead of blaming Jesus's church in hate.
2: Be open to receiving correction instead of pacifiers. Accountability is not an attack!
3. Stop expecting perfect Christians because we all fall short of God's glory. No man, regardless of position or pedigrees, is exempt from making errors. Extend grace and mercy as it is extended to you. Forgive and be freed from the bondage of holding a grudge!
