Authentic Christianity When Misunderstood

Misunderstandings — how many times has it happened to you? I doubt that there is anyone who has not been misunderstood. If it is of any comfort, we must real-ize that misunderstandings seem to be “Standard-Operating-Procedure” for God’s people. Search the Scriptures and you will find scores of people, godly people, who were terribly misunderstood! Wherever you have people, you have the po-tential for misunderstandings. Even though misunderstandings are inevitable, they must not be ignored! If they are not dealt with biblically, they will fester into greater problems. This morning come with me into the life of the apostle Paul to learn how he dealt with misunderstandings as an example for us.
