Obedience is better than sacrifice...
Listen to what Jesus said he said take heed…take caution…listen to this…do this…he said take heed if your brother sins or trespasses against you rebuke him…in other words if your brother done you wrong go tell him he did you wrong and if he repent…if he say I'm sorry I want to make it right…forgive him... If he trespass against you 7 times in a day and seven times in a day turn again to you saying I repent or I'm sorry I want to make it right you shall forgive him…
Here are some instructions given to the Colosse Christians… put on therefore as the elect of God holy and beloved bowels of mercy kindness…humbleness of mind…obedience or meekness…long-suffering…endurance…forbearing one another and forgiving one another. If any man have a quarrel against any even as Christ forgave you so also do you and above all these things put on love or charity which is the bond of perfectness or completeness… Christians are supposed to be the most forgiving people on the planet. Are you forgiving? Are you a Christian…
listen to what God said through his prophet to the first king…to obey is better than sacrifice and to listen better than the fat of ram. Jesus even said if you've done wrong to your brother and you're offering a sacrifice leave your gift and go make it right and then offer your sacrifice… have you made things right with those you've done wrong…
Jesus said blessed are the merciful for they shall obtain mercy…in other words if you forgive others you'll be forgiven…
Father we ask you and help us to reconcile with others and show us mercy in Jesus of Nazareth name Amen.
