The Truth about Matthew 18

Christ’s instructions for conflict resolution have been ignored and misused. Brethren vastly skip the first two steps and go to a minister for his intervention instead. Ministers make decisions about relationships without following the prescribed procedure. People misrepresent Jesus description of two or three “gathered together” and think that He is validating a small gathering for a Church service. As a result, the vast majority of attempts to reconcile directly violate Christ’s command. Our booklet explains Christ’s instructions for conflict resolution in detail. Finally, we have an open and honest review of what people are to do when a brother sins against them.
