In today’s gospel lesson, we learn about how to handle difficult situations. Here is a super informative post that goes into more detail.
If your brother sins against you, go and confront him privately. If he listens to you, you have won your brother over. But if he will not listen, take one or two others along, so that ‘every matter may be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.’ If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church. And if he refuses to listen even to the church, regard him as you would a pagan or a tax collector. Truly I tell you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven. Again, I tell you truly that if two of you on the earth agree about anything you ask for, it will be done for you by My Father in heaven. For where two or three gather together in My name, there am I with them.” (Matthew 18:15-20)

Overview of the Sunday School Lesson
In today’s Sunday School lesson, we looked at the verse, “If your brother sins against you, go and confront him privately. If he listens to you, you have won your brother over. But if he will not listen, take one or two others along, so that ‘every matter may be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.’”
This verse is a great reminder for us to take care of one another. We are to go to our brother and talk to him about what is wrong, and if he listens and does what we ask, then we have done our job. However, if our brother does not listen, then we are to take another person along with us to help confirm what we are saying. This is because we want to make sure that our words are backed up by evidence.
The Meaning of Matthew 18:15-
In today’s gospel lesson, we learn about how to deal with difficult situations. In Matthew 18:15-20, Jesus tells us how to handle disagreements between friends.
When two friends have a disagreement, we should first try to talk to each other about the problem. If that doesn’t work, we can try to resolve the disagreement through mediation or arbitration. If that still doesn’t work, we can go to our pastor or another trusted adult for help.
We should always remember that Jesus is always with us, and He will help us to resolve our disagreements peacefully.
The Context of the Passage
In today’s Sunday School lesson, we looked at the context of Matthew 18:15-20. These verses are from what scholars call the Discourse on the Church, the fourth of five major teaching blocks in Matthew’s Gospel (the Sermon on the Mount, in Matthew 5-7, is a different, earlier one). Jesus is teaching about how to deal with problems and conflicts that may arise in a person’s life. He teaches that we should always go to God for help, and that we should not try to solve our problems on our own.
Applying Matthew 18:15-to Our Lives
In today’s gospel lesson, we learn about how to deal with difficult situations. Matthew 18:15-20 tells us that if someone does something wrong, we should forgive them and not take revenge. This is important advice for our lives, as we all sometimes face difficult situations. We can learn to deal with these situations by following the advice in Matthew 18:15-20.
The Importance of Confronting Sin
Sin is a serious issue that we need to confront. In today’s Sunday School lesson, we learned about Matthew 18:15-20. In this passage, Jesus tells His disciples that if someone sins against them, they should go and confront that person privately. Jesus is saying that if someone is sinning, they need to be confronted and dealt with. This is important because it shows that sin is a serious issue and needs to be dealt with.
The Power of Reconciliation
In today’s gospel lesson, we learn about the power of reconciliation. Reconciliation is a powerful tool that can help us heal our relationships and restore peace. We can use reconciliation to forgive our enemies, reconcile with our loved ones, and reconcile with ourselves. Reconciliation is a way to move forward and become stronger.
In conclusion, it is important to remember that we are all sinners and need to repent. We also need to be obedient to our Heavenly Father and do what He asks of us. This is why Jesus Christ set up the Church as His earthly organization to help us learn and follow His teachings. This is also why we attend Sunday School and listen to our leaders. We want to be able to return to Heavenly Father and be with Him forever.
