Restrain Anger...

A person’s wisdom yields patience;
    it is to one’s glory to overlook an offense. (NIV)

Good sense makes a man restrain his anger, and it is his glory to overlook a transgression or an offense. (Amplified)

The discretion of a man deferreth his anger; and it is his glory to pass over a transgression. (KJV)

~ Proverbs 19:11

Foster Love

Whoever would foster love covers over an offense, but whoever repeats the matter separates close friends. ~ Proverbs 17:9 (NIV)

Conflict Resolution in the Church

15 “If another believer sins against you, go privately and point out the offense. If the other person listens and confesses it, you have won that person back. 16 But if you are unsuccessful, take one or two others with you and go back again, so that everything you say may be confirmed by two or three witnesses. 17 If the person still refuses to listen, take your case to the church. Then if he or she won’t accept the church’s decision, treat that person as a pagan or a corrupt tax collector. ~ Matthew 18:15-17 (NLT)
