Have you ever had someone say something cruel to you? Which makes you want to say something hurtful back to them. It happens to everyone at some point. Turn the other cheek and walk along. Do not stoop down to that level and be rude to your brother/sister. Yes, they are your brother/sister. That is your brother and/or sister of Jesus Christ. We are God's children. It may hurt to hear such things come out of someone's mouth, but do not be the same. That person is being foolish and do not let them get the best of you. Ignore them. Ignore their words. They will soon get the punishment for speaking of words that are harmful.
"Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear." - Ephesians 4:29
Build each other up. Be friends. Be gracious and loving to one another.
"Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you." - Ephesians 4:32
Do not hold a person hostage for something. Be forgiving. Forgive everyone for everything. For it is God that will judge them at the gates of heaven not you. That is his place.
The grace of the Lord Jesus be with all.
Amen.
