Note those who always create conflict, complain and are hostile toward everything. Do not give them opportunity to air their grievances and inject their poison into the conversation. Take charge.
“Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them.”
(Romans 16:17)
“Cast out the scorner, and contention shall go out; yea, strife and reproach shall cease.”
(Proverbs 22:10)
