Expressing A Contradictory Opinion In A Sensitive Way

There is a way of humbly disagreeing with a person without intentionally being divisive or contentious.  It is possible to express a contradictory opinion in a sensitive way without sneaking in a little insult.  It is possible to speak the truth in love.  This is what the mature follower of Jesus strives to do.

Do The Right Thing In The Right Way

I heard Razi Zacharias say this recently:  “One of the most dangerous forms of temptation is the temptation to do the right thing in the wrong way.” So, for example, we might speak the truth—which is the right thing. But we might do so with anger and hostility instead of love—which is the wrong way. Followers of Christ are called to do the right thing AND to do it in the right way.
