Hey, this is Beth.

Hey, this is Beth.

Listen, what we live for at Living Proof

is to serve people the Word of God. We base our ministry on Hebrews 412 that tells us that the

word is alive and active. We pray this message is going to serve you in some way today

and that God is going to speak through it. Thank you so much for giving us this privilege. to

to serve you in some way today and that God is going to speak through it.

All of you turn with me to Matthew chapter 18.

I'd like to start reading at verse 15.

If your brother sins against you,

go and tell him his fault between you and him alone.

If he listens to you, you have gained your brother but if he does

not listen take one or two others along with you so that every charge may be

established by the evidence of two or three witnesses.

If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church.

And if he refuses to listen even to the church,

let him be to you as a Gentile and a tax collector. Now keep in mind that our mega churches

were not in operation when these words were given back in the New Testament early era,

that they were mostly house churches,

if not they just met right outside

where there was not some kind of gathering place for them to come.

But they are a group of people that would fit in a house.
