1 Cor. 4 Dealing with factions and divisions in the church.

This is an important chapter in church life because with people there can and will be problems.

The solution.

1. Leaders conduct yourselves honorably
2. Church body be careful to in pride to create division in the body.
3. All seek to build unity and seek to honor one another.
4. If there is something to discuss do not build factions but rather go to the person you need to talk to alone and be humble. Maybe there are facts to which you are unaware.
5. If that meeting alone does not yet build unity then agree on bringing in other Godly counsel to assist in building unity.
6. If you have done all this and division remains that cannot be resolved it may be good to consider finding a new church.

In my experience, sadly, many of these God ordained steps are not followed.
