Paul recounted going to the elders in the Christian church at Jerusalem to tell them what he had been teaching to the Gentiles. He also told of how he handled a disagreement with Peter, another apostle.
Here are two good examples of how we should proceed in our lives. First, we should share what we are doing with someone whose opinion we trust so that our actions can be confirmed with a second party or we can receive counseling if we are going down a wrong path. Second, we need to learn the correct way to disagree with someone. We need to confront them and try to help them right their course. Most importantly, all of this must be done in love.
