*[[Col 3:16]] WMTH-JM* Let the teaching concerning the Messiah remain as a rich treasure in your hearts. In all wisdom teach and admonish one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, and sing with grace in your hearts to God.
The kind of teaching you listen to determine how you relate to people. If you listen to Law preachers, you are likely to have a critical spirit - always condemning folks, and hunting for sins and faults in their lives.
But that is not why we are here on earth. We are not here to do devil's work by becoming the accusers of the brethren. No! We are to admonish one another. To encourage, uplift, motivate and strengthen one another. The only way we can do this is by imbibing the teachings concerning Jesus Christ, His finished works and His love.
When we soak in teachings centered on Jesus, then only, would we have grace in our hearts. And because a man speaks out of the abundance of his heart, this grace flows automatically to others wherever we find ourselves and in whatever we do. We begin to believe in the best of everybody. We refuse to see anyone after the flesh so we don't gossip about them nor condemn them.
Beloved, wisdom for living comes as we focus on Jesus. So feed on Jesus and spread the sweet aroma of Christ wherever you go. Shalom!!!
