Philippians 1:1

This is Paul and Timothy, who serve Jesus Christ, writing to all of God's people in Philippi — including the church leaders and everyone who helps out.

Keep reminding people of what actually matters, and make it clear before God that they shouldn't waste time arguing about words that don't help anyone — it just ends up confusing people and tearing them down.

Be gentle when you're teaching people who are working against their own best interests. Maybe God will help them change their minds and finally see what's true.
