On the issue of Offenses (2) By Babatunde Olugboji The Bible says fools show their annoyance at once, but the prudent overlook an insult. (Proverbs 12: 16) Maybe someone says or does something and someone else is offended. They do not like what someone else is saying or doing. Very quickly you take offense and start fighting back. You don’t pause to consider what was said, who said it or why. You don’t give the other person a chance. Many relationships have been broken because of one wrong word that was spoken, and offense was taken. Fools show annoyance immediately…

On the Issue of Offenses (1) By Babatunde Olugboji Trying not to take offense could be difficult. This week we’ll start a series addressing the Biblical principles on offenses. This principle applies to just about any sin a person can commit. When we focus on a behavior, even in an attempt to eliminate it, the result is more of that behavior.

Every sin or bad behavior begins with…
