Often we arrive at a deeper understanding concerning the truth in Jesus. Or we have a revelation that something we believed in the past was not biblical but rather a doctrine of man. The first thing I tend to want to do is tell people about this new understanding.
This kind of information from God is not always easy to share with other believers for many reasons. In many cases there will be believers that are believing something that seems right but is contradictory to the Word of God. To help us in these situations meditate on these verses and ask God to give you wisdom on how we should go about sharing truth with confused believers.
James 3:13-18 KJV
Jas 3:13 Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom.
Jas 3:14 But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth.
Jas 3:15 This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish.
Jas 3:16 For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.
Jas 3:17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.
Jas 3:18 And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.
